Is that Herbstreits longest flight ever to get from college game day to his booth? That’s Boise to Baton Rouge

That’s my one criticism of Herbstreit. He has to fill in every second between plays with talk. Let the game breathe a little. Otherwise I like him.

Not a fan of Fowler at PBP guy. GOAT game day host though.

But they all do it, so at least what he says is intelligent and relevant.

Bring the Tissues, in case Herby gets emotional and breaks down into tears.

They can't get enough of the night game experience in Death Valley. If you ever watch their Instagram nightcap videos after a night game in Death Valley, they say it's the best environment when the stadium is rocking.

Not even close. Hes flown from west coast back east.

ETA: Sorry, seems like it is closer than I thought. I just remember his flights where he had to leave the set that seemed much longer.

Fowler just doesn’t know how to use his voice the way broadcasters used to. Speaks from the back of his throat instead of projecting. Rece is fine but I wish Fowler would’ve never left Gameday. He had a way of drawing you into the significance of this situation.

The best in the bunch by a lot.


I could sense Herbstreets disappointment last week in the 4th quarter in how we responded to Bamas onslaught.

Hopefully better outcome today

I like Fowler as a PBP guy. But I loved him on gameday, he has a voice made for storytelling and being able to draw you in closer to listen.
