One of these days I'm going to be able to see Game Day in Tuscaloosa live and in person. I'm working for 4 hours this weekend.
It's worth doing once, but after that it's not IMO. It gets annoying fighting the mash pit all around and having ESPN crew members constantly wanting to inspect your sign, if you bring one.

Re: ESPN college gam day will be at Tuscaloosa for Bama-ATM game.

I'd volunteer to do it. I'm a TideFans celebrity with a "60 Minutes" and NPR appearances in my background. And to satisfy the Auburn argument ("didn't even attend school there"), I DID apply and WAS ACCEPTED in the spring of 1987.

NPR. Wow. Natriuretic Peptide Receptor. Your genius never ceases to amaze me Selma. (I picked that acronym for the Pep Tide part)

I think he is a good choice. I really enjoyed listening to him on the radio the other night. He talked about how much he and his wife loved Tuscaloosa.

Ok, I am confused. Isn't the game on CBS W/ Verne and Gary announcing?

ESPN dropped the ball on this one. I think this was a great opportunity to have Les Miles as a guest picker. He knows both teams (Bama intimately) and I think his personality would have translated well.

Yep and Herbie never predicts the game he's calling.

I like the choice of Verne but am confused since the guest picker is expected to pick the main game.

Really ESPN? You pick the one guy that cannot even pick the game? Well at least it isn't Katy Perry or random terrible country singer I have never heard of.

That's cool. Verne won't pick our game however. This may tell you this may be the last time Gameday is going to a SEC venue.

Not sure about that. Tells me CBS will not do another game, at BDS, in Verne's last year. And since he is not under contract with ESPN, he can do as he pleases. Unless CBS tells him not to, or he just doesn't feel comfortable with making a pick.

We'll see.

Correction: you will see, I won't. Never watched the show and see no reason to start now.
