The game will take place at Lucas Oil Stadium on December 7 and the over/under for this game is 49.5 points. Ahead of this game, the Ducks defeated the Huskies 49–21 in their most recent matchup. Conversely, last time out, the Nittany Lions defeated the Maryland 44–7. Now this game will be a competition against each other for a conference title and a possible first-round postseason berth. And the crew is going to make the Oregon Vs. Penn State’s game is even more epic.

The matchup between undefeated Oregon Ducks (12-0) and James Franklin’s 11-1 squad, Penn State, will be televised on CBS. Thus, play-by-play commentator Brad Nessler, analyst Gary Danielson, and sideline reporter Jenny Dell—the network’s top announcing team—will be on the call. They will undoubtedly brighten your day. Refrain from belief. Then look at the employment history of these announcers.

Following a thrilling game between the Bulldogs and Tide in the SEC in the second half of last year, Brad Nessler and Gary Danielson concluded their roles as the iconic voices of the SEC on CBS. With a heartfelt farewell, Nessler and Danielson wished the SEC luck in its strategic partnership with ESPN and welcomed CBS’s new partnership with the Big 10. Only a few months later, though, did the amazing presenter team return to Kinnick with an NCAA football broadcast on CBS.

Since taking over the mic in 1991, these 2 have consistently demonstrated their ability to grab the audience’s attention with a superb, spot-on voice-over. Brad’s journey was completely crazy. He started on CBS, then switched to ESPN, ABC, and NFL Network before returning to CB. Danielson, on the other hand, went from covering Georgia Tech basketball play-by-play radio with AI Ciraldo to being the principal play-by-play commentator for CBS. Both collegiate and NBA basketball were fantastic for the all-around player.

Now, given their shared legendary past, we can be sure that Sunday will be an incredible day. However, we can be sure of one more thing regarding James Franklin’s PSU’s path in this matchup as per an NFL veteran.

Penn State’s route to defeating Oregon

One former NFL player stated that there is no assurance that Oregon will overcome Penn State. With some assistance as well as their own efforts, the PSU earned their spot in the title game. They only needed to defeat Ohio State 13–10 in Michigan to secure their trip to Indianapolis.

In the most recent episode of “Inside College Football,” veteran NFL defender Brian Jones cautioned the Ducks not to take the game lightly because it would be Penn State’s first Big 10 appearance in 8 years. Jones stated, “If they can get Oregon consistently in 3rd & long, they can pin their ears and they’re gonna get to Dillon Gabriel.“

In addition, Jones went on to forecast a Penn State upset, stating that linebacker Abdul Carter and tight end Tyler Warren’s combined performances will determine the outcome of the game. Therefore, “I’m going with the Nittany Lions,” Jones stated. However, Oregon is now a 3.5-point underdog. Let’s see what transpired.
