    Watching the Florida and Miami game, they were talking about New Years gifts and Gotfried said "Somebody's going to get a gift, the LSU job, Bobby Petrino and Jack Del Rio, they say he's looking at that job. Somebody's waiting for a great job."

    Franklin responded "Listen, you talk about some good young players, they are there."

    Certainly not everyone is good with ESPN (Trev :po: ), but Franklin and Gotfried are a great tandem.

    By far the best broadcast team in college football imo.

    Either that or I am just so used to hearing them call Saturday night games that they are second nature to me.

    They always do a very good job.

    Franklin's voice is a classic.

    Yea, I think the whole media, except in Louisiana, kept the "CO" mantra chant every time they would talk about the Tigers.

    I like Franklin a lot. I used to like Keith Jackson a lot too, but he is so far up the Pac 10s a$$ that I have soured on him.

    I will take the announcers on ESPN anyday over the ABC ones....especially Jackson, Fouts, Musburger, and Daniels. Lynn Swan is the only classy one there.
