Glad it’s an early game so I can hear them even sooner. Will be like seeing an old friend.

Reminder, pregame Fan Fest is Friday 11-2. LINK

The best was when Lyn was calling a softball game with Yvette and the girl was rounding third lumbering home and Yvette didn’t like the comment.

Lyn should have been the new radio guy for LSU

That line is so overrated. Its cartoonish and cheap. It really takes away the excitement when one of our guys hits a homer, and he takes away from the batters moment.

Before his move to Auburn, I would listen to Lyn with Bart on Tiger Talk every Monday, very informative and also very entertaining with Lyn's mastery of local color. I can still remember JC Politz on the radio as a kid calling the Billy Cannon runback. I was ten at the time.

I feel some rustling in the Jimmy. And, I hear a faint sound of a rusty gate hinge creaking as well. Oh yeah!

I heard cornflower and cerulean last year. Lyn’s distinction of the color palette second to none

Im sure he's been in the lab cooking up some fresh material

Lyn Rollins and Big Ben!!!
Are on the call for all 4 games this weekend. It is baseball season baws!


I love having them on the broadcast. The only drawback is that last year Ben's crew didn't show the trackman data like the other SEC & ESPN crews.

I’ve run into some Orioles fans up here that equate Big Ben and LSU. Was wearing an LSU hat one time and all they said was “Big Ben!” while pointing at my hat. Took me a second to put 2-and-2 together

Lyn and Ben are the best. I try not to miss any of their broadcasts because there are only a few. Lyn and Ben >>> Chris Blair and whoever shows up to work with him.

It is unfortunate that when Ben leaves the season is just heating up but the broadcasts are not quite the same for the rest of the season.
