Are these the best announcers for the Notre Dame vs. Purdue game, or could we do better?

We are just a few hours away from witnessing another college football’s biggest in-state rivalry game as No. 18 Notre Dame looks to bounce back from a shattering loss against Purdue in this Week 3. The Fighting Irish sustained a huge setback with a 16-14 loss to Northern Illinois in Week 2, something that pushed them away a bit from their college playoff dream. So, they are not in a place to bear any more upset in the big battle against Purdue tonight to chase the playoff dream onwards. It’s safe to say that the last-ditch situation itself is going to make the game pretty jam-packed. Moreover, the legendary announcer’s background tonality will certainly add some extra amount of adrenaline to the veins.

Don’t you know who they are? If so, then we are in your safe. Let’s pipe through the life of the scheduled sportscaster ahead of a high-stake Notre Dame vs Purdue game.

In the latter half of last year, following a spectacular matchup between the Georgia Bulldogs and Alabama Crimson Tide in the SEC Championship Game, Brad Nessler and Gary Danielson wrapped up their tenure as the legendary voices of the ‘SEC on CBS’. Nessler and Danielson signed off on a very emotional note, wishing the SEC the best in its strategic collaboration with ESPN and embracing CBS’ new deal with the Big Ten with an open hand. However, only within a few months, the terrific presenter’s duo made a return to Kinnick with a CBS broadcast of Iowa State football.

The two CBS announcers continued to prove that they could pull the crowd with an excellent on-point voice-over ever since they took over the mic back in 1991. Nessler had a chaotic ride altogether. Starting from CBS, he jumped ship into ESPN ABC, and NFL Network and finally reverted to CB. On the other hand, Danielson came a long way from carrying out his play-by-play radio duties with AI Ciraldo on Georgia Tech basketball to CBS’ lead play-by-play announcer. The all-round also had a great stint with NBA and college basketball.

Fans of Big 10 have recently been introduced to Gary Danielson’s voice and seem to get enough of it. Danielson and his long-standing on-air mate, Brad Nessler, took the call of the Iowa- Iowa State rivalry game last weekend and the response was far from positive.

Danielson has had a lofty record as a veteran color analyst but couldn’t live up to the expectation of not being able to get a basic rule. He misjudged a throwaway of QB Cade McNamara, calling it an international grounding. He realized his mistake by looking at the replay, but the backlash started to flood by then.

It will be interesting to see if covers up the damage this week with a quality analysis.
