ESPN bringing back Keith Jackson!
Holley Night of the Living Dead! ESPN is bringing back Keith Jackson! He should have gone to the dog track long ago! Even before 2002! Big Ten gets Musberger and Danielson, which I think is one of if not the best teams.

even though i am going to the game, i will be pissed if jackson decides to but his way into the game, leaving musburger out to dry. Musburger is the voice of Big Ten football. It was a sin that musburger did all the great and exciting games in 2002, and then keith jackson boxed him out for the fiesta bowl. brent, having done all our games that year, was very knowledgable about the team, whereas keith was totally clueless. brent deserved to do that game. that miami game was filled with ridiculous plays that should have had so many memorable calls corresponding with them. instead we got keith mumbling in a monotone voice, "the buckeyes win. they are 14-0." musburger would have been screaming his head off and ejaculating, instead we get keith, who had to be constantly propped awake by dan fouts with a stick.
i hate keith jackson. he is a legendary announcer and was great in the past, but now he sounds like college football bores him. he never gets excited. during the rose bowl, vince young was ripping off ridiculous runs, and all jackson could say was "touchdown.....uhhh....texas."

Trail......I tend agree. Although there are times where I disagree with Musburger, he does announce games very well and does put a little excitement into the games with his commentary. His Ginn call in the scUM game last year was awesome!! Jackson is a classic, but does put you asleep a little.

I loved listening to Keith Jackson for about 25 years, but he should have stayed retired a few years ago. But he wasn't as bad as Dan Fouts in the 2003 Fiesta Bowl!

You guys didn't like his "Barn" Childress references?
I can hear it now... "How often do you see two fullbacks, and one of 'em is named Brandon Schnittker, and the other's named Dionte Johnson?"

for the most part.. Jackson will now only agree to do west coast games... and he's blatantly PAC-10... so I don't miss him at all... I'd be pissed if he did OSU-Texas

Shoot, when I saw the thread title I thought it was about some sort of voodoo ritual.
