College Gameday Expands to Three Hours

[Riddickulous]

Erin Andrews to join expanded College GameDay - USATODAY.com

First hour hosted by Erin Andrews, who will then switch to sideline reporting for the final two.

Awesome. I'll watch her for an hour.

Do they know Tebow left for the NFL? What the hell are they going to talk about for 3 hours??

 

[jonesman]

She might be easy on the eyes, but I won't watch that Big B!!!

"The biggest reason I wanted to stay was because they'd expand my role," Andrews said Sunday in her first interview about her new contract. "It's time for me to try new things. … The hosting stuff is what I'm really looking forward to."

And those were the highlight quotes.

New role; same vapid commentary.

not saying she is ugly because she is not, but i don't get the fascination with her. Is it because she is a sports reporter? It reminds me of Danica Patrick, she is an ok girl but is hot for her field so everyone exagerates.

Bloody hell. I thought that show was too long as it is. I think that program could fit everything into an hour show. Its getting harder to watch it every year. Dont get me wrong, I love the show but its just too long, and its harder for me to watch Lee Corso; he gets more fucked up every year and I want to remember him in his golden years. The poor bastard can hardly talk anymore. Anyway thats my 2 cents.

She is crazy hot and I don't even like blondes... AND unlike most other female sports reporters she actually at very least acts like she knows what she is talking about, and really seems like she does in fact understand it... that adds a ton to the hotness...

I still won't watch CGD all that much though... hearing Andrews bash ND (which she is sure to do now) would be just too much...

Dude, different categories completely. Danika is five feet tall and annoying as hell. Andrews is a real woman with real, well, my mother-in-law is a HUGE Irish fan and she reads this site, so I'll leave it at that.

Although I'm not a fan of her nose, just youtube a clip of her on Dancing with the Stars, I actually watched that show once to see her in her outfit, errrrrr, to watch the artistry of dance. And unlike Danika, she is a girl you would want to hang out (her heard on a Bill Simmons podcast and she's great...knows sports, loves sports, and can take and give some jabs).

I'm not real big on sideline reporters (really...what do they add?), but she's one I can at least stomach.

As for Gameday, I agree...too long. But the first hour will be on ESPNU, then they'll switch it over. I think the real issue I have with this whole thing is that the OP, Shaq, didn't even include Erin Andrews in the title of the thread!!! Who cares that CGD is going to 3 hrs...the story is that Andrews has joined dude!

I'm in the "Andrews is incredibly overrated because she's in sports" demographic.

I was on a flight with her from Cincinnati to Atlanta. She's hot.

 

[johnnykillz]

She has a weird nose. Also her facial expressions were strange on DWTS.

Now Chelsea Hightower, that girl was smoking.

 

[phork]

I find her pretty. But far from hot. And super close to the annoying side of things.

 

[Blue Blood]

I find her pretty. But far from hot.

I would agree...she's a pretty lady, but don't find her hot at all.
As far the CGD going three hours, I honestly don't think I could sit through it for that long. I couldn't even make it through the two hour shows...one hour pregame shows are plenty long enough.

 

[airjacobs]

3 hours for making highlight? I don't think he can do that. Just a waste of money.
