Watched the replay earlier.

This guy is legit.
He is knowledgable, unbiased and loves SEC football.
Fat verne is just along for the ride.


FWIW, cbs' intro and coverage of this rivalry was also first rate I thought.

Danielson is the best in the biz. He has an immense knowledge of the game and really does a great job of breaking things down in an easy to understand way, IMO. Verne sucks, but Gary is great.

Come On,,, Verne is not that bad once he gets half a bottle of Scotch in him... on second it seems though he doesn't even know where he is half of the time!

I hate gary. he says the most inane things.

Verne is absolutely horrific. He is always calling the wrong name, position or spot.

I keep on waiting for him to go perriloux with the tackle when shepard is doing something.

Has he EVER gotten Patrick Peterson's name right on the first attempt?


FWIW, every time I hear him talk the only thing that enters my mind is: "What a SHOT by Happy Gilmore!.... who the hell is Happy Gilmore?"

I agree, he always gives a good analysis of whats is going on.

He goes out on the limb and tells you what is going to happen before it happens. He is usually correct.

I like Danielson. But I wouldn't want to see a movie with him.

I personally like craig james calls. He is not particularly insightful but he seem to realize that most viewers know a lot about football so points out inane stuff less.

In the first quarter, bama ran what I think was a sweep to the left, and it came back on a holding call. And gary says something about bama and lsu realizing they have to open up the playbook. Really, running ingram (or richardson, don't remember who) is opening up the playbook?

He is pretty good at guessing trends, but it ain't exactly rocket science with LSU.

He sitll annoys me. Not as bad as verne though, or the burger. I fricking hate the burger.

Agreed.

Meh. He doesn't know much, but he serves his purpose. Danielson is the brains and Verne is like the loony side kick. I do like his enthusiasm. FWIW... both love the SEC and it shows.
