NEW YORK (AP) -- 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.
ABC and ESPN revealed their new announcing teams Wednesday.
Other interesting changes include Dan Fouts moving from the analyst position he held last season to play-by-play. The NFL Hall of Famer will be in the booth with Tim Brant. 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

Dan Fouts sucks on air. He must screw up 5 names a game and seems to add little in the analyst role. I can't believe that gets him play by play.

doug flutie was a good choice.

Could you be a bit biased?
:drink:

Never heard Flutie in a broadcast so hard for me to have an opinion there...

Maguire on the other hand...:pucking:

I give Maguire a break because he attended The Citadel, but he's getting tough to listen to.

Interesting piece of trivia with regard to Maguire: the assistant coach who recruited him to The Citadel in the late fifties was a guy named Al Davis. Yes, THAT Al Davis.

I also think Theisman will be better without Maguire. They are both bad but the 2 of them together were just atrocious
