I don't care what anyone says, this is a quality broacast team. They were on top of the play-by-play and game flow, knew both squads from top to bottom, and reminded us all that it doesn't get any better than SEC football.

Imagine the unthinkable: We might have had Herby and Brent.

I love both those guys....Verne is little like your crazy Uncle and Danielson knows football (for the most part)...

GD is really the best!! Verne has lost a few steps over the years but clearly better than those ABC clowns

It's a shame when Danielson can recognize when a true freshman like Reid or Simon is in the game, and even talk a little about their HS recruitment, and Krysan(sp?) on the local post game show admits he had to get a roster to look up Tharold Simon's name and had never heard of him. And Simon has played since the UNC game

Not that I prefer Hawthorne, but these two relied on spotters all game long. Verne kept calling incompletions wrong. He didn't see the ball fumbled out of bounds. "Who recovered it.....oh, it went out of bounds." They both really sucked yesterday and I previously thought better of Danielson.

Better than fussberger/herbiestreet. But sometimes Danielson gets under my skin.

We need someone to take Julios catch towards the end of the game and compare it to Danielson's call of Randle's 75 yard pass.

Non-bias my nuts.

Look, I know alot of people say that shite is all in people's heads, but I can't be the only one that notice Randle's TD call. I seriously thought Danielson was pissed about it.

I wish someone would cut them out of their recordings and put it on youtube.

Sure Verne is senile, but they are the best tandem in college football. Also, when they are calling your game, it generally means the game is meaningful at a national level.

Glad to see this thread.

Danielson is the Vin Scully of college football. He really knows his stuff.

They had no idea who made plays,

Generally had no idea where the ball was,

Had a terrible time with the roster

Camera work was terrible

Verne is drunk and Gary is annoying,

but other than that, they are phenoms.

Anyone is better than Mussberger who mumbles through the entire game, you can't even hear his calls over the roar of the crowd. Verne is shite and I hate him, but he's still better than Brent.

this...I made a comment at the game that I was glad I wasn't at home and at the game so I wouldn't have to listen to Vern and Gary calling the game and several Bama fans around me immediately responded in agreement, they couldn't stand listening to those two either...

Sorry, but I muted the entire 2nd half. Only way I could enjoy the game.

Danielson is the best tv SEC analyst in the business.
Verne lends an air of warmth and coziness to the broadcast.

Danielson & Verne called the game ok. We are never going to get equality in comments. The guys are on the fly for most part. Danielson made comments on Drake from his one on one with him during the week. Lee for stepping up during Jefferson injury. He commented when LSU beat Florida with 5 fourth down call from the hat. Verne to me plays the Ed McMahon to Danielson. I find him funny as hell at times. They have all kinds of facts that keeps the flow of the game interesting.

Muting those two is the only way to watch a CBS broadcast
