At least they got rid of The Bear, I never could figure out what his role was supposed to be and he got way too much airtime.


I had to immediately change the channel whenever The Bear came on. He was awful and added zero value to the show. And for some reason he got a lot of airtime. Never made any sense.

His role was to have been the Jimmy The Greek Snyder of the show.

His picks were hilariously bad.

Before podcasts it had its place

But now we’ve all listened to game breakdowns and matchups and things all week so by the time Saturday comes, we just want the games then

I’m sick of hearing about it and want to watch it

Loved game day when I was young. Have not cared in 5 or more years. I do look for viral clips after the show now that the GOAT is on set.

Like it or not, it's why they brought him in.

Highest ratings since 2012.

It has been hard to watch for years because Corso is sad and cringeworthy to watch these days. They should have nudged him out more than 5 years ago. McAfee doesn't help and he needs to settle down, but Corso's obviously declining cognitive ability is the elephant in the room they clearly don't want to address.

I like Laura Rutledge. But I can’t take Tebow’s drama.

Good for them. Sounds like their viewership increased but not by the posters in here. At least we all got sense to stay away from it

So what they have been doing for decades?

Week 1 of College Gameday this year was the third most watched broadcast in the shows history.

3 hours is too long, they gotta fill the airtime with too much crap.

I hate their weekly sob story. I always turn the channel.

Game day early 2000’s was a time to be alive.

LSU would play at 7p and I would wake up at 8a watch Gameday till 11 and take a nap. Ha
