I agree. And we won't have to listen to Brent Musturder talk like he has a mouth full of shite.

Todd Franklin and Mike Patrick were my favorite pair. They called many good LSU night games back in the day.

Ron Franklin > Todd Franklin

Ron usually called games with Mike Gottfried.

Franklin and Mike Patrick are both PBP guys and didn't call games together. Mike was paired with Blackledge for a while. Game I remember the most was LSU/Bama in '06...Laron's hit on Sarah Jessica Parker..."that's just evil there".

How the hell Holly Rowe gets paired with them is beyond me.
Who cares, she's window dressing and not relevant to the main event, which is the game. Brent mumbling through another entire game will cause me to drink heavily and curse.

Nessler & Blackledge are the best tandem in CFB right now IMO.
Agreed and I don't think there's a close 2nd. This is great news. Not just because they're much better to listen to than Muss and Herb, but because LSU's squad will have the benefit of being introduced and competently and fairly evaluated in front if a national audience.

These guys know their stuff and won't spend the game regurgitating tired old ESPN talking points.

Good crew. I like Brad Nessler. Is that the ABC/ESPN #2 team? I thought for certain the Bama/VaTech game would get the #2 team and LSU/TCU would get the Joe Tessitore crew (which isn't bad).

What is y'all's opinion of this crew?

I like the crew. Holly Rowe isn't much to look at but she's not some ditz at least.

I really like Blackledge and Nessler. That's one of my favorite crews. I'm kinda sad about getting stuck with Ms. Piggy, though.

Nessler/Blackledge is my favorite college football broadcast team by a mile. They don't get caught up in drama/speculation/hype, and they call a solid, impartial game.


... but I do miss Ron Franklin
