ABC, ESPN Shake Up College Football Announcers

ABC, ESPN Shake Up College Football Announcers [link].

Saturday Night Football” on ABC will bring in Kirk Herbstreit as an analyst for all games this season, along with the familiar voices of commentator Brent Musburger and reporter Lisa Salters. Herbstreit was an analyst for some “Saturday Night Football” games last season, and will continue to work on ESPN’s Saturday morning “College GameDay.” It is sad the Brent Musburger is still around, commanding the spotlight. He and Chris Berman began the personality first and sports second genre of announcers that we have today. Brent if you remember had the mancrush of AJ Hawk and Courageous Brady Quinnn and he gave us his signature line of: You are looking live!

Brent needs to visit a taxidermist.

Big East fans rejoice!!! You get the  A team: ESPN’s Thursday night games will feature Doug Flutie and Craig James as analysts, with returning commentator Chris Fowler and reporter Erin Andrews.

Big Easters should feel right at home with Fowler.  He hates the SEC and if you remember, he was the original host of scholastic sports (or whatever the fuck it was called).  Covering the Big East should be just like covering high school football for Fowler.  No drop off at all!!!

  1. Poor Erin. She’ll have to deal with sidelining crap football all year AND have the worst hair of that crew.

    Can’t believe you blockquoted something with Erin in it and no photo. Straight slippin’, Jai. I know the Big East pisses you off royal but you can’t let it affect your journalistic tuna standards.

  2. Damn you to hell Jai. You could have hit this like a split hog and you failed

  3. Erin is skank. As with most gator women, she has hideous dangling arm fat. I am sure that she chould be a poster girl for Valtrex

  4. Do they just throw the “analyst” tag on anyone who wants it on ESPN?

    “Hey, you played TE on Southern Utah’s intramural team for a season. Want to become an Analyst for the Worldwide Leader?”

  5. motherfucker, i am looking for an interview with stu scott where he actually said he was the 6th best WR in a jets preseason camp

  6. oh fuck, I remember that. It was back before his lazy eye got totally out of control. Herman Edwards was coaching the Jets then.

  7. Why can’t we get rid of Brent Musburger—-between him and buddy touting the Pac Ten and running down the other conferences
    it is hard to enjoy watching a game, no matter how one=sided it becomes. We could do with announcers like the ones who announced the Nebraska and Oregon St. game. (Sorry, I don’t know their name, but hurrah for them —they actually presented a great
    program. Please — get rid of Musberger!!!!
