College GameDay

In what has become a national treasure and tradition for many years is Saturday morning's "ESPN College GameDay" show as if you are a college football fan this show gets you running and in the mood for Saturday's all day and all night action! Many times the show is live from the campus of one of the day's or night's big matchups. And they interview fans and tailgaters, and show players and coaches arrive at the stadium off the bus, plus the stories and history of the game clips shown are memorable. Plus wacky skits are done with school mascots, and the hosts really know their stuff in Lee Corso and Kirk Herbstreit. Really a fun Saturday early watch to get the college football day started.

This show would have credibility if they got rid of Lee Corso. At 84 years old, all he does is put on the mascot hats and masks, and otherwise clown around. That spot he is taking up could be used for a good college football analyst who can add some valuable observations. I always switch the channel when Lee Corso starts talking. It is a waste of time when he is on.

There is no need for 6 people, or even 5. Bring back the original format of 4 people. Pat McAfee is so annoying. More people just create noise and don't add to the show. When Corso retires they will just add more morons like Pat to make noise. Otherwise the show is lots of fun and a great way to decidee what games to watch for the day.

And to the other reviewer, who criticized Lee Corso, quit being an ageist. Corso is the heart of the show. He is funny and has a big heart. Just because he is in his 80's does not mean he cannot contribute. While I think 80's shouldn't be Senators, Congresspeople or Presidents, a 80 year-old sportscaster is perfectly fine.

Finally, ESPN and Fox Sports, quit trying to make College Football like the NFL!
