When thinking on back of how amazing and historical Davis' return in the Iron Bowl was, how pathetic was Rod Bramlett's call of the play?

When looking back at some of the great calls of all time we have:

Russ Hodges and the Shot Head 'Round the World -
LINK

Howard Cosell and Down Goes Frazier -
LINK

Joe Starkey, Stanford v. Cal -
LINK

Dan Davis on Doug Flutie’s Hail Mary that beat Miami -
LINK

Larry Munson on the chair-crunching Georgia play that beat Florida
LINK

Bob Costas summing up Michael Jordan seconds after he hit the shot that beat Utah.
LINK


And then you have Rod Bramlett screaming like an incoherent idiot:

Kick Six deserved better.

Now that I think about it, I have never heard Eli Golds rendition of the Kick Six. I bet that one is just brilliant.

It's certainly better than Bramlett's. Compare Eli's Rose Bowl call to this one and it makes it sound like this is the first time anybody ever let Bramlett in front of a microphone.

Thanks for the link to Rod's call. Got me pumped up for the rest of the work day.

Then you even give a bonus that we get to hear Eli's call

It’s got, no, does not have the leg. Chis Davis takes it in the back of the end zone. He’ll run it out to the 10, 15, 20, 25, 30, 35,40, 45, 50, 45. There goes Davis! Davis is going to run it all the way back! Auburn is going to win the football game! Auburn is going to win the football game! He ran the missed field goal back! He ran it back 109 yards! They’re not going to keep them off the field tonight! Holy cow! Oh, my God! Auburn wins! Auburn has won the Iron Bowl! Auburn has won the Iron Bowl in the most unbelievable fashion you’ll ever see! I cannot believe it! 34-28! And we thought a miracle at Jordan-Hare was amazing! Oh my Lord in Heaven!

Genius.

you'd think the Gumps would want to quit bringing this up so that it might fade away within the next decade

If I were an Auburn fan, I wouldn't care if Bramlett was making fart noises with his mouth as Davis streaked down the sideline.
