I don't get the Palmer hate. He knows the game and doesn't sound like a retard when he talks.

Musberger will be a sideline reporter doing features on the QB's girlfriends.

Musberger and Palmer

Don't have an issue with either of em. Palmer knows his stuff. I don't love Musberger, but if he's calling your game, it means you're playing in one of the games of the week.

It would be difficult to find a worse announcer than Mush-mouth unless you love the left coast and believe that whichever player made the last play is "the best player in all of college football" (or whatever sport is being covered). It's been well over a dozen years since he has been among the top 10-15 announcers. I avoid games he is calling whenever possible.

Say what you want I prefer Verne to Musberger and his sidekick best of all Gary Danielson.

When Musberger is anouncing if it ain't the TIGERS, I look for another game.

CBS will have the exact same TV package that they've always had with one exception: the 2:30CST time slot is no longer exclusive to CBS. Moving forward, the SECN can have an SEC game kick at the same time as CBS (2:30p CST). Previously, ESPN could not have a game running during the same time slot.

Very informative. Thank you.

Musberger is ok. Palmer is too serious.

Who is Herbstreit going to work with now?

At least we will not have announcers dredging up old shite players got into. They only did this to LSU and not Alabama, Ole Miss, USC, or Auburn. Did it to Honey Badger and Jeremy Hill and Spencer Ware and Jefferson. Disgusting.

Musberger,at 74, has to be the oldest sports announcer outside of Dickie V & he exudes the energy & excitement of a plant. Why take some one that age to open up a new sports network, especially one as big as the SEC network will be. ESPN has now hired Finebaum, Tebow and now Musberger as part of their new network. Perhaps ESPN has borrowed the same idiots in the SEC league office in charge of scheduling to hire its on screen talent.

If they put David Pollack there I'd be muting the whole time. Worst of the worst.

Worse than Musbergor? Really? He makes more mistakes, says more incredibly inane, downright stupid things, than any other announcer.

He mispronounces names, calls out the wrong player, in a game last year he called the QB on the field the name of the opposing QB for the first 3 plays of a drive, I don't know why it took that long for the producer or someone to correct him.
