Do you miss announcers not screaming or do you prefer it?

We had Keith Jackson raised his voice but succinctly called exciting plays without screaming. Love him or hate him, Verne never screamed into the mic. Musberger would get a little excited but it wasn’t over the top.

Now we’ve got Fowler screaming into the mic dying to be heard. McDonough loses his voice he gets so excited like in the MSU v Michigan game a while ago, don’t get me started on Tess and Gus Fagson.

They make it about them.

Fowler, Tess or Johnson would be on this call like “VINCE YOUNG TO THE CORNER SHAJSPLZNFFNODIEIENS HES GOT IT OH MY GOOOOOOOOODDDDD TOUCHDOOOOWNNN AAAAAAGGGGHSHHSJDKKR!!!!!!!”

Announcers today suck

I can't watch a game with Tessitore announcing it.

I can’t agree with you more and I wonder if the screaming is to get casual fans excited during the game? It almost makes it unwatchable.

The screaming that Fowler and Tess and Gus do take away from the play and make it about them.

Keith knew just to shut up and let the crowd make it exciting. You’ll notice in that Rose Bowl clip he shuts up and they just watch Vince Young walk around with the crowd noise and the moment for a minute. Less is more

I don't notice Fowler over announcing. Love McDonough. But Gus and Tessitore are awful.

Gus Johnson has full-on orgasms in the booth.
