Here is an article on the new ABC and ESPN crews for this season...

"Brent Musburger will team with analysts Kirk Herbstreit and Bob Davie for ABC's Saturday night college football games this fall, while Brad Nessler will be part of a three-man booth with Paul Maguire and Bob Griese."

"Mike Patrick and Todd Blackledge will team up for ESPN's Saturday night broadcasts, while Doug Flutie will be in the studio for both ESPN and ABC. Also, Chris Fowler will take over the play-by-play duties from Mike Tirico for ESPN's Thursday night games."

Ugh... can't say I'm crazy about any of these teams. Not a huge Musburger fan. Davie's insightful but a little dry. Nessler should be the top play-by-play guy. And Paul Maguire? WHY? WHY? WHY? Still, having Flutie join the team will be nice.
