Verne is a classic front runner, just so happens Bama has been in front a lot lately. He was all on LSU's nuts when we trounced Auburn.

I'll miss Verne too, but I have come to really link Nessie. He used to call mostly Big 10, or some other conference, and I didn't like him. Now that he's covering more SEC games, I've come to really enjoy his "..has 10, has 20..." calls.

CBS might actually be OK with Nessler/Danielson
Nessler and Blackledge are the best in the business.

You guys are to hard on ole Verne. Of course ALL lsu fans are rough on any announcer that doesn't suck Lou's arse. Which is sad.

Brad Ness is my favorite announcer hands down, and it most likely stems from him narrating NCAA games.

Joe Buck is horrific

Maybe we'll beat Bama without verne's love fest for them

He is the worst. His homer calls for the baseball Cards and football Cowbys is pathetic.

I'll miss Verne. It's time to move on though. Nessler is a grade A talent though.

Good pick. Him or his partner in the booth is good. Don't give me musburger.

frick Verne, I would trade Prince's life back for that tub of crap, and believe me, I hate every song he ever wrote. But that motherfricker could BALL, son.

Awesome! About time.
I don't hate Verne but I can't stand how he makes no attempt to hide his favoritism, be it with UF when they had Tebow, Auburn when they had Newton, now his favoritism lies with Bama. If you, as a professional sports commentator have a favorite, so be it. But to a nationwide audience, seems to me the professional thing would be to keep that hidden or at least to a minimum and he doesn't do that, in my opinion.
He has a great voice as a commentator but that's where it ends for me. I don't wish anything bad on the guy at all, he just has always had some sort of axe to grind with LSU for some reason.
Danielson, on the other hand, I could listen to all the time. I love how he explains things. Blackledge is a close second to him.

Now if Gary Danielson would go find a rock to climb under and never come out order would be restored.

No shite. I would prefer Verne for every televised sporting event forever over Beth Mowins for SEC on CBS.
