    Tommy Tuberville....not even close for me.

    How about Lou holts, lee corso, Beth mowins, Gary Daniels, tommy tubbweville, AND Vern? I can’t stand any of them. Why should we have to suffer through any of them? I’d rather listen to Chris Berman say “back, back, back, back...” on repeat then any of them.

    I actually don't mind Vern and GD...most of the time. I know a lot of you don't hear or see him living in the east but Rick Neuheisel is the worst. Tommy Tuberville is awful and needs therapy about hating the Dawgs...as well as coaching on how to enunciate and not slur your words together like you just popped a xanax. One that I like it Todd Blackledge...has good knowledge and analysis of the game without the undercurrent of patronizing like Danielson.

    Brad Nessler is one of my favorites. When they paired him with Gary, after Vern was pushed out the door, those games got alot more easy to listen to.

    Agreed, Nessler is sharp and likeable.

    Danielson, followed by Tubberville, & then Beth Mowins seem to be the consensus of the worst top 3.

    Who is yours? Mine is a toss-up between CBS' Gary Danielson who just makes me totally ill as soon as I hear his voice, & also ESPN's Tommy Tuberville who has so much venom coming out of his mouth for the DAWGS, that he STILL cannot hide it, & IMHO he does not even try to hide it at all!

    Dude, you hit the nail on the head .... I think Danielson is my #1 just because we see him so much....

    Tuberville was especially bad. Joe Theismann and Mike Patrick may be my all time worst combo. Cris Collingsworth irks me too. I miss Uncle Verne a little. Would’ve been fun hearing him call the sec title game this year.

    Gus Johnson is my all time fave. Not sure who I’d want on color though

  • christopheruleschristopherules Posts: 15,814 ✭✭✭✭✭ Graduate

    As far as ALL-TIME favorites go? For me it was Keith Jackson, & Pat Summerall (may our Almighty God bless their souls.)

    Beth Mowins for me...I can't stand to hear her commentate

    For me I'm really surprised and disappointed in the work of ESPN's main guy Chris Fowler. For years he was so good as host of College Gameday and I figured he would be a great when he decided to leave and do play by play. For 3 years now he has worked all ESPN's big games and he has, in my opinion, not been very good and he really hasn't shown any improvement. Kinda sad

    Gary Danielson gets stuck in my head so badly when I think of SEC on CBS games, so yeah, it's gotta be him. Verne Lundquist was legendary though, I call him the voice of the SEC, and I miss him but the new play caller since last season was a good replacement for him.

    Gary and Vern can ruin a perfectly good televised football game
