Alabama football started the season with a 63-0 breathtaking victory against Western Kentucky. The game was no less than a dime from the collective. To coach Kalen DeBoer, it was not even his debut win, rather, it was how the boys carried out the win in an absolutely dominating demeanor that made the real flex. With a sky-high expectation, the Bamas geared up to face South Florida in week 2 action at Saban Field at Bryant-Denny Stadium. Despite a lackluster start, they retained the momentum against the Bulls as well 42-16 win. But the real challenge is yet to test their edge. Coach DeBoer’s first big road test against Wisconsin will hit in a few hours.

Apart from all the predictions and various other theories swirling over the realm of the much-hyped-up game, there are some interesting names in the announcers’ panel that you must be aware of.

Meet the announcers for the Alabama vs Wisconsin Big 10 battle tonight:

Announcers are typically a very inseparable part of the recreation for any football freak. It’s safe to say that a very familiar, legendary voice explaining the nitty-gritty of the game dynamic triggers a different level of vibe among the psyched-up crowd watching live from the arena or from their drawing room. So, whenever a match officially gets scheduled, one of the crucial things we tend to notice is who is gonna get the game going with a nuanced presentation. In the case of Bama vs. Badgers, the crowd-puller would be the terrific duo of Gus Johnson and Joel Klatt.

Johnson is very natural and energetic on the mic, the exact way you can paint a picture of him off the air. A perfect symphony with co-announcer Joel Klatt produces something really exciting every time they catch up. Klatt, who started his career as a quarterback, wrapped it up around 2006 and kick-started his journey to broadcasting with FSN Rocky Mountain that fall.

While both of the standout broadcasters marked a distinguished career of their own, Johnson’s path to sportscasting supremacy is a bit more captivating.

Gush Johnson falls ‘head over heals’ for sportscasting 

As a nine-year-old kid, it was a far-fetched idea for Johnson to see himself as a top-notch broadcaster in the future. But destiny had its verdict. ”I envisioned myself replacing Lou Whittaker as the second baseman of the Detroit Tigers” Johnson spilled his childhood dream.

During his college baseball days, Johnson once met his former player Glenn Harris on a regional radio station in Washington, DC. Out of curiosity, he asked his friend about how it felt to be talking on air. A positive review hit the quick interest button in Johnson, who ended up applying for a job and confidently walked out with an offer later.

”Just like that. It was very serendipitous for me to be in that position that early. I just fell in love with it. Just — head over heels.”
