Fantastic. Now College Gameday has to show up at all the games broadcast by ABC. No more Irish and SEC I guess. Another great move by the WWL.

As long as Chris Fowler is not in any huge Saturady match-ups in the SEC or Notre Dame games. We in South Bend and Miami can not stand the wuss. ND - Comments - Fowler of course was wrong. Alabama Comments about a coach - of course Fowler and the rest of the idiots were wrong. As a Georgia fan living in Miami I can honestly say I can not stand the wuss you call Fowler. Is he ever right about anything. He sure missed the ND NC. He also missed Alabama not getting a great Coach. Come on Wuss, shut the hell up if you are batting .000. ND this and Alabama that. SHUT UP.

Paul Maguire sucks big time..

This is a convenient way to keep Herbstreit out SEC Country when Gameday comes to an SEC campus. He won't have to face the crowds or hear the boos for his comments last season.

Kirk Herbstreit will be doing ESPN College Gameday by day and doing the ABC college football broadcast by night. Gameday ends at Noon EST, and the ABC game of the week starts at 8:00pm EST. Giving him 8 hours to travel if for some reason, Gameday isn't at the primetime game of the week. Just because he is doing both, doesn't mean it's an all in one package. That from Herbstreit himself on 1460 The Fan sports radio in Columbus, Ohio.

Brad Nessler & BOB Griese are without a doubt the best team out there!!!! They even make a blowout exciting, and Brad's touchdown calls the AWESOME!!!!

I would watch these guys to do bowling, or ping pong matches.

WHO IS THE BLACK ANALYST ON THE TULSA GAME?

ROD GILMORE, FANTASTIC COMMENTATOR

Ed Cunningham is the worst of all of them. He things it's more important to show off his football knowledge (if you can call it that) and hear himself talk. He talks over big plays, he talks over the official's calls, he talks over replays. Paul Maguire is a distant second in the such category!

Not trying to be chauvanous, but I don't think women should be involved in the both, and probably not the sidelines. NOT BEING MEAN at all. I understand they are there to pretty up the set. But, as a viewer, I want to hear from Braodcasters that PLAYED th game and KNOW what they are talking about. Like putting Tony (goose) commentating on Gymnastics ! Just ain't right ! Can't stand to hear someone that has NEVER played the game, second guess coaches or players ! That's why John Madden is so popular - It's not rocket science.
And also, these guy tonight were talking about the Talent and troubles at ND ? What about the COACHES ? Could it possibly be the coasches aren't putting the players in a position to win ? NEVER their fault - always the players !

WE LOVE ABC College Football!!!! KEITH JACKSON SHOULD BE BACK!!! I MISS HIM!!! BUT, I WISH HIM THE BEST. Rasmussen and Nessler are also good. Lee Corso should be there with Kirk Herbstreit on Saturday Night Football on ABC, to make a great team!!! The Orange Bowl is back, too!!! ESPN Full Circle!!!!!

Flutie,Fowler and James do not get the job done
on Thursday night football; no emotions or enegery to cover the game and talk about everything except the game at hand.

anybody that is elgiible for the heisman trophy should not be degraded to a heisman cheerleader by any sports broadcaster.

I have not listened to the college games on thursday nights until tonight october 4, 2007. Your new
"shake-up" of announcers tonight during the
South Carolina vs Kentucky football game has been absolutely horrid. It was so obvious that the announcers were pulling for Kentucky or that they just don't like Steve Spurrier --i don't know which--but they need to listen to the way they spoke and their disappointment when Carolina scored.
Their comments regarding Steve Spurrier were disrepectful until maybe when they had no choice at the end to say something nice..as he won and the boys did a great job.. I was embarrassed to listen to it. I enjoyed the win . A good announcer does not choose sides the way this was done. its fine to get excited about a good play--but my goodness...to be disappointed that carolina made one??? give me a break . The kids played their heart out. Your opinions were uncalled for as they were just that--your opinions. How about the old days of just calling the game....My 88 year old mother told me she just muted the sound so she could enjoy the game..that has to tell you something, huh? Steve Spurrier has done a fine job yes--but it is the kids on the field giving 150 % that you should have at least acknowledged throughout the game. There must be a reason the kids are doing that. And your personal feelings regarding Steve Spurrier should never have been made so obvious. I was embarrassed for you as IT WAS NOT COOL . It sounded a bit like
envy of a successful coach. Go Gamecocks!!!!

Paul-The ground can cause a fumble, last year,the Okla v/ Texas game, Adrian Peterson is running around left end with the ball in his right hand, (3rd qtr) and when cutting up field puts his right hand on the ground for balance, the ball is jarred loose from his hand hitting the ground.
Bob Greasi says over and over the ground cannot cause a fumble but the refs ruled a fumble. Pls discontinue repeating this ole wives tale!!!

Is there any way to get the point across to any and all college football announcers that the vast majority of listeners are not interested in comments about their personal lives?

Additionally, we do not care for their discussions regarding the personal lives of the players, such as the fact that so-and-so's grandfather is in the hospital and may die.

Too often, because of banter like the above, plays are missed and/or not properly discussed. Explanations of an official's ruling suffer the same fate. Also, discussion by special background commentators is often made at expense of showing a play or ruling on the field.

The bottom line is that we are watching and listening to a game because we are interested in the game, not the commentators or the personal trials and trubulations of the football players.

My own solution to such aggravations has been to shut off the sound and turn on the radio game announcers; or, if neccessary, watch without listening to the TV or the radio. I have kkept open the option of writing to the sponsors.

I hope I have made my feelings clear.

I wouldn't want my previous comment to be downgraded and taken less seriously because I misspelled 'tribulations.' Sorry about that, but not about the gist of my previous comments.

Not really a question, but a nice request to cbs,espn, or nfl network:

Is there to be a pre-game WITH cbs announcers for the patriots-giants game?

(I know I would watch cbs rather than nbc just for this)
If so, what a PERFECT opportunity for Jim Nantz-- right before going to simulcast ~ 7:59pm or whenever-- to give one of the best preambles in sports history (homage to brent musberger, as nantz does every so often)

YOU ARE LOOKING LIVE... GIANTS STADIUM...THE MEADOWLANDS,
EAST RUTHERFORD, NEW JERSEY.

The most exciting and significant stadium in the nfl over the past 20+ yrs.

(if cbs could have their own announcers--instead of simulcast-- that would be great; chris coll./b.gumbel are just not in the same ballpark--in fact, they're boring and useless)
(better yet, have brent musberger be part of the pre-game show and make the announcement!-- that would be one for the ages)

I grew up in the 80s watching the nfl today--and nothing pumps up fans more than a...
YOU ARE LOOKING LIVE!

To the Gameday Crew,
I thought announcers were suppose to be unbiased and fair when calling games or giving out football information. Did it every occur to any of you that we, the fans, are not interested in your personal view points. Mostly because they are so biased. I was born and raised in California but I have always been a SEC football fan. USC is a good team, I like Pete Carrol and think he is a good coach. But I get sick of hearing about how wonderful you think they are each and every time you are in front of a camera. You say they are playing the kind of football right now they would have played all year if not for injuries. Well LSU would have played the kind of football they played at the beginning of the year, all year, if not for injuries. I have yet to hear any of you say that.
Also, I am sick of hearing how LSU gets to play in their own back yard each time they play in the dome. I do believe that the Rose bowl is in USC's backyard but again do any of you ever mention that....NO. I would just love for USC to be in the SEC conference for just one year and see how they fair playing quality conference teams each week. I think they would come out pretty banged up and not have the easy winning year they always have. Then, why don't you guys remember what your job is....to be fair and unbiased when announcing games or talking football. Herb...you should go be the game day voice of Ohio State.

OK, the 2007 season for Gameday is over. Now you have a year to get rid of Lou Holtz, Mark May, and Holly what's her name.

Lou and Mark rant and rave about things that they know nothing about. Holly has no idea how to wear makeup or get her cut.

You have some great talent on the show/network - especially the Gameday Crew of Lee, Kirk, and what's his name - plus some up and comming young talent. Why do you continue to let the three fool above bring you down?

Welcome to the real world folks

Get rid of Paul and leave Ness and his partner Griese and bring back the old abc college football theme music. Get rid of that "espn on abc" stuff. It sucks! Brett Mussberger is the best ever with "you are looking live"! Keep it up Brett! Kirk rocks too along with the coach corso.
