It's been unwatchable for at least a decade.

Or maybe it has nothing to do with The Big Lebowski and the people that try to police board content are tedious.

Gameday used to serve a moral purpose; as soon as the program began, it was officially “Game Day” and you could start taking part in pre-game or tailgating activities and not feel guilty. Without Gameday, you ran the risk of being judged for opening that first beer or digging into the food at 8:00am.


I never thought about it that way before, but that’s exactly how things worked.

Turned it on this morning excited. After about 20 min I quickly realized that it was just bad. Everything they talked about wasn't even entertaining.

It just fell flat. I'd rather spend time doing stuff and turn on the noon kickoff

A lot of times i won't even watch much of any pregame stuff on other networks like CBS or ABC much less ESPN. I put a game on at 2:30 when its scheduled to come on.

really the only time i'll watch a pregame is Football Night in America on NBC before Sunday night football but that has more to with the coverage recapping the days action from the nfl.

Corso should have retired years ago


Wait, he's STILL on there ?

Honestly, how long ago did he have his stroke ? I get that it was a nice gesture to bring him back, for a nice victory lap style ' thank you ' season, but good grief, he's 86!

Sad!

Yup.

And yet they destroyed College Football Final with Rece Davis, Granny Holtz and Mark May. That show was must-watch just to see May send Granny into a spittle-frenzy and Rece trying desperately to keep them on track

Absolute entertainment.

You have to get past week one, they didn't have enough games to talk about yesterday.

And you have to let Kirk tell you how great Ohio State will be this year every year.

He's like Lou Holtz picking Notre Dame to win it all every year for the past 30 years

Lee Corso had his stroke back in freaking 2009.

12 years ago.

I'm glad he's doing well, and I recall seeing him early on, when they brought him back on air. Kinda tough to watch, but still endearing.

But after a few years of him recovering and all... why not just politely retire him ?

But that's probably the least of that network's problems, to be honest.

Does the fox show talk about all the conferences fairly evenly or does it focus more on Big 10?
