Kirk Herbstreit says McAfee & Saban kept him at College Gameday

ESPN College Gameday is one of the most popular sports shows. It has an enormous fan base and people get excited for it every week. This success is in part due to the hosts and analysts it has on the desk. The main analyst is Kirk Herbstreit, who has been on the show for almost thirty years. Unfortunately, he was thinking of stepping away from the beloved show. However, now with the help of Pat McAfee and Nick Saban, Kirk Herbstreit has a new fire and passion for the show. 

College Gameday has been a timeless show that has set the stage for a lot of all-time college football classics. Now, the show is in a perfect place with a balance of entertainment, comedy, and football knowledge. Pat McAfee, who is a former NFL Punter, and runs the incredibly popular Pat McAfee Show has increased the energy of College Gameday. McAfee is often pumping up or heckling the crowd and his field goals segment goes viral every week. 

On the other hand, Nick Saban is one of the best college football coaches of all time. His legacy at Alabama has made him one of the most loved and hated coaches ever. He has a surplus of knowledge to share on every College Gameday and it is nice seeing him in a different setting. These two have had a huge impact on Kirk Herbstreit. He was going to give up Gameday since he was calling TNF NFL games on Amazon Prime and calling other CFB games. Now, he shared his new excitement for the show on Andy and Ari On3 podcast

“But now, man, you couldn’t kick me off the set. Like I absolutely love it. We’re having a blast.” -Kirk Herbstreit.

Finally, it looks like fans of Kirk Herbstreit and College Gameday will get both together for a long time.
