There was one CFB game played on FS1 that was called from the studio last season. I can't remember who was playing but there was a marked difference in the quality of the broadcast. Sadly, it will be more and more common but hopefully it will take a while before P5 matchups in football are affected by this.
I think it was Miami at FAU

I could be wrong, but hasn't Herbie done this a couple times for the ABC Primtime game when Gameday has been at a site that isn't the ABC game?
They send him via private jet to the game. However one of the reasons they replaced Fowler on Gameday this year was to ensure he would be ready to call the game even if Herbie was late. The two of them barely made it to a game in 2014, and Plan B was to have John Saunders and Mack Brown call the start of the game from Bristol.
