They are breaking up blackledge and Nessler? What a disaster.

Edit: guess Nessler is gone to cbs. Very disappointing.

Those 2 were great. To be honest, I'm not sure I care so much about who is calling the game. I may notice it a lot more this year when familiar voices aren't on the call, but will it change the experience? Maybe I will watch more Fox games?

i won't be skipping any games but having a quality team call it makes it so much more enjoyable. having to listen to verne/gary every week is like getting my teeth pulled.

Nessler was/is probably my favorite college play-by-play guy. His voice, rhythm and flow were unbelievable. He and Blackledge were a phenomenal team, and I hate that they're no longer going to calling games together. Here's hoping that Blackledge follows Nessler to CBS to take over for Verne and Gary.

I have more respect for Spielman as a man than just about anyone walking this planet. In the prime of his all-pro career, he walks away to take care of his cancer-striken wife. A great example for all husbands & men out there. That very day he became one of my favorite athletes

Now I thought Ponder didn't want to do sideline anymore because she wanted to take care of her kid. Is Christian now on Daddy duty?

Very disappointing. They were perfect together.

Levy called Tennesee/Missouri in 2013, but I haven't heard him do any other play by play recently.

Last few years he has filled in for at least 1 game. I think he's pretty good. ESPN should move Tom Hart to a higher profile.
