Wish we could have Sean McDonough for every game, but put him with someone besides McElroy. I miss Todd Blackledge.

I wish ESPN could get both Brad Nessler and Todd Blackledge back and put them back together. They were great.

Damn....I cant stand his theatrics and drama. He reminds me of a middle school girl.

I think y’all listen to announcers too much. Cut the volume down and announce the game to yourself.

No, I’m not Joe’s mother.

He's the best in the business IMO. Even keeled, calls it down the middle, knowledgeable, doesn't have an annoying voice.

At least Katie George is there. Small consolation.

Looks like this will be the last time. UTenn, LSU, and OU will be bight games, USC(e) will be the ESPN 6pm game and AU will be the Saturday afternoon game. This is if everything plays out and there aren't a ton of upsets. You never know, though. LSU may go 0 for October and the game may not be the night game for the first time in 15 years.

ESPN underutilizes the Hart, Rogers, Cubelic crew. They would be better for the third abc slot than Tess and Palmer

He seems like he hates his life at NBC. I would too if I had to sunshine pump Notre Dame and listen to Noah Eagle for four quarters. I'd rather listen to Beth Mowins than Noah.

Name a sideline reporter girl, other than the GOAT Holly Rowe, that isn't at least an 8.5.

Yeah, I know they probably think Tess and Palmer is a real big get for your 3rd slot game in their rights package but they are not good at all. Tess should stick to MMA and boxing. His style works there...it is just too much for 3-4 hours. Palmer just seems like he's phoning it in sometimes...I dunno...the group just isn't that great...

Never been a fan of Holly Rowe. I'm sorry she got cancer but honestly, she brings NOTHING to the broadcast.
