There had been rumors in seasons past that ESPN would bring their entertaining college football pregame show to the Treasure Valley. Most recently, the Idaho game last season. It has never come to fruition until now. Chris Fowler, Kirk Herbstreit, Lee Corso, Desmond Howard, and (thank all things good and holy) Erin Andrews are bringing their circus/analysis/preview show to the Blue on Saturday! The show is a lot of fun to watch and to take in and it is always entertaining. At least we don't have to listen to Lou Holtz lisp his way through whatever it is he goes on about. Oh yeah, Mark May's giant freaking ego and ugly, pompous face will not be clogging up the camera either. That is a huge plus! What a handsome group here!
The best part is that they added Erin Andrews to be the sideline reporter this year. She is very easy to look at and actually quite funny and intelligent. What do you think?
It is going to be an absolutely crazy scene in down town Boise come Saturday morning. They are opening the gates at 5:30 AM and will start the show at 7. I can guarantee there will be copious amounts of people behind the analysts' desk, holding up signs and making absolute fools of themselves. I really wish I was one of them, but it is not to be. The commentators will be on the Blue turf for the entire show. What else would they do? The Blue is famous and a huge attraction when people visit Boise State, or the whole city for that matter. There are also a couple of other events taking place at the same time and a few main streets will be blocked off. Parking will be insane. In other words, Boise, Idaho is a college football town and we get a chance to show it to the world! The presence of College Game Day is very prestigious for the city and will go very far for recruiting and getting the brand of the Broncos out even more than they already have. The atmosphere will be electric. I am stoked!
Stay tuned for my weekend picks tomorrow and my weekly Player to Watch on Friday. We have a lot to cover. Oh yeah, one more picture of Erin Andrews just cause!
