Off topic. Are you guys looking forward to Lee Corso this year?

If he is back, doesnt this have to be his last year? I personally don't mind him, but he was slipping some last season.

Game day will not be the same without him. When he dies he should be cloned and still be on. I don't know if there are any announcers that have half his passion. I love having him on TV every Saturday morning in the fall.

I like him as well. It doesn't matter what he is saying other than "Not so fast!"

He is getting old mentally so I wonder how much longer he has. I would hope they give him a final season where he has a farewell tour when the time does come.

Look, his picks have been wrong more often than not over the years, but the man to me IS Saturday morning Football TV. There was a time when he truly did provide tremendous insight. Maybe it is time, but I will miss seeing him nonetheless.

hung it up after he had the stroke because it's really starting to affect whether you can understand what he's saying.

struggles through his Gameday comments. I said 5 years ago that they needed to have him in the truck with some pre recorded comments, and just bring him out for the headgear pick.
The other Gameday guys have to complete and/or correct many of his thoughts. It is painful to watch him struggle, so I tend to watch very little Gameday anymore.

the last 25 years and a big reason for that has been College Gameday. A big part of Gameday's success has been Lee Corso, like him or not. For those of us in which Gameday is now a CFB institution, Corso will not easily be replaced, he's one of a kind.

joking....joking....I like what he brings on game day even if he is beginning to get a little senile he still breaks up the seriousness of the game day broadcast and brings a little fun. His bit with Bill Murray at the FL ST game was hilarious!!!

at least more than any other pairs of analysts.
Also, imagine what it'd be like if Gameday is without Corso and no headgear pick.

I always listen to his picks and pick opposite of his picks when I bet. He's golden, and part of my retirement plan.

Everytime he picked against us, we won! #@+$&*! he had to pick us to win the NC game! I knew it was a bad sign when he picked us!
