College GameDay was always about the fans, every fan. Throwing jabs at Washington State and Oregon State is pretty disrespectful. And those fans have all the right to feel the way they are feeling, ESPN is the main reason the Pac-12 is dead and those two programs are in very uncertain situations.

I'll never understand why people like his show so much. It's just a bunch of meat heads talking about football like children. If you listen to McAfee's "analysis," he's not really saying anything of substance. He'll say something like: "That team, they looked hungry. They looked angry! They had a couple plays in that game that made you go, 'Oh, that was nice'. But that defense they were up against, man, are those some real men. Those are some real DAWGS! They had a couple plays where they came flying in there and BAM... yeah, you know what I'm saying, just woke them up!" Like, what the fuck does any of that mean?

Don't hate it, just prioritize watching it anymore. I was excited he was on GameDay as I previously tuned out of GameDay for many of reasons you covered (sad for Corso) but mainly they showed they didn't care for little guys. Went to Ohio State for 29th time over Missoula MT for first time. Thought Pat might win me back.... it's been opposite. Show is worse than ever. I put Big Noon and GameDay side by side for Colorado v Colorado State.... wasn't even close which one was more enjoyable looking on TV. I miss Reggie a lot, Mark has been a above average fill in. They just need to dump Urban. Throw money at Pete Carroll, Saban or maybe Patterson.

With the mix of holding onto Lee Corso and bringing in new faces who change the tradition of the show there is no real direction.

Also, one other thing that I feel has hurt college football -- and subsequently these shows -- is that ever since College Football moved to the 4-team playoff it seems both morning shows have put too much emphasis on that. For most fans in the country (who do not root for teams that will make the playoff let alone even having a chance) they are not interested in hearing the show's hosts spend so much time on a few blue blood programs like Alabama, Georgia, Ohio State, Clemson, LSU, Oklahoma, Michigan, and others. Many fans just want to love the game of college football and they want their rivalries and their traditions. They are going to tune out when the talk centers too much on the playoff. It's nice this year that we have some new blood doing well. Next year may change some things with a 12-team playoff taking shape. And that may really help these morning shows if they handle it right.

Thanks for the info. I wasn't aware of all the changes. I won't be watching Gameday anymore. Before this year, I kind of liked McAfee, but no more. Going after either Oregon State or Washington State is despicable. Sorry if that offends anyone, but I don't like taking shots at people when they are down.

You either like professional sports analysis or locker room analysis. 70% of people that watch football don’t even know concepts and schemes. College game day needed energy and if you can’t see it you’re probably still sippin your coffee at 10Am. The show has been electric and the crowds have given some CLASSIC moments already

Pat has to be the center, the IT, of anything he's part of. I have never understood his draw. Maybe in small doses he's okay. He doesn't fit in a group setting. He can't keep his mouth shut long enough for anyone else to get the story/report flowing. He needs to go. After the PAC's start this year, including Oregon St and Wassu, maybe ESPN put their money on the wrong horse! Is this why Disney is having money issues, making BAD hires? I record the show and start watching after it's been on for about an hour. I could fast forward the commercials and be caught up just before the end of the show. I fast forward most of Pat's act and now I'm caught up 30 minutes before the show's over.

@frankschaefer88908 ай бұрын
I understand the McAfee market. If McAfee loved college football and watched the college gameday show as a kid he would be the perfect addition to the show. As more of a casual I think he should be used in a more interactive role where he does crazy stunts, and partakes in campus traditions and kind of does the Gene role but in the form of actually participating in traditions and cool stuff.

Pat can't draw 300,000. So who is he drawing in? That does not come close to covering the $17 million a year they are paying him. He decided to jump on board this train wreck. My bet is that he already regrets it. ESPN may as well. When you get beat in the ratings by NBA today, you have a problem. It isn't even basketball season.

When they were at Tennessee and McAfee decided to lead the crowd in Rocky Top right before the guest picker made her selection it put the nail in the coffin for my opinion on him. It seems instead of being College Gameday it is just the Pat McAfee show lite. Going to have to give Big Noon a shot this weekend.

My solution idea: 1 have Lee Corso ride off into the sunset and retire. 2 Bring back in David Pollock to replace Corso. 3 Have Pat McAfee tone it down and be more reserved as a slightly more spicy than the rest but not exceedingly overpowering everyone else. Great show, great ending for Corso, and more order.

As a member of UC's band, knowing a lot of people who attended BNK in Bearcat Commons week 3, it seems a lot better than CFB GameDay. Never attended GameDay though, nor BNK as a fan, but based off of week 3 reactions, BNK is the future of college preshows.

I’ll be a voice in the other direction. Pat was the reason I started watching college gameday every Saturday. I don’t tune in for all of it, usually just the last hour. I agree about the Lee thing. It would probably be best if they had the guy retire. He’s been a great influence on the sport, but none of us are getting any younger. I think Pat was better for the show his first year. He was the “spice” factor to balance out the rest of the more composed, suit-wearing panel. This year, it feels like they want everyone to join into the tomfoolery with Pat. It feels a little over-the-top now to be sure. While I agree they need to do more to level out this show during a time of flux, I also hold that Pat is a huge reason more young people are tuning in to the show (like myself).

When Gameday started, the vibe was that it was just some guys at ESPN who really loved college football, sitting and talking about it. And then they got the idea of "Hey, what if we did the show live on a campus where a big game is scheduled?" and it went on from there. It doesn't feel like that now. It feels like any other ESPN show where they just are there because they are being paid to, rather than being excited to talk about the game AND getting paid for it. And the new version of the intro song is just....boring.

Gameday died when it went to 3 hours and quit being about football analysis and more about sappy stories in college football and about Lee Corso being a mascot. There hasn't been any substance.

Pat is a wrestling heel at this point. As long as he doesn't cross a line that gets him fired, he can say what he wants, whether it's brutally honest, his twisted view on things, or somewhere in between. He is Skip Bayless; saying outrageous things to get people to watch.

It's amazing how few people get that Pat was cutting a heel promo. ESPN's clearly trying to skew the oveeall demo younger with Pat's addition, but they're trying to do it for a Saturday morning show. Problem is... college students don't watch the show. Alumni do. We'll see what adjustments ESPN makes to the show after feedback from this season.

I’ll give my two cents from a different perspective. I cover Kansas Football and it’s been interesting to deal with both shows as GameDay came in 2022 and Big Noon just a few weeks ago for the KU vs. OU game. For both shows, they usually will give local media a chance to talk with some of the members of the show and give us a chance to go backstage right before the shows start to get some behind-the-scenes footage for like social media or stuff. Dealing with ESPN was such a headache. They weren’t accommodating at all and it just felt like they were just doing the bare minimum in all proportions. Don’t get me wrong, it was neat because we talked to Reece and Des a day before the show and were allowed access before the show. But it just felt like there was that expectation to cover it so they just essentially brushed us off to the side. Overall, it just felt chaotic and they really just didn’t care. Dealing with Fox was a completely different story. The staff we worked with to set up media with Rob Stone, Matt Leinart and Urban were so nice. They were so appreciative we were there to give them the media attention, and they gave off the energy that they were really happy to be there. It felt like we were more of a priority rather than a burden. It also felt like they legitimately cared compared to GameDay which just felt like they were coasting off of name recognition alone. Looking at ratings, GameDay will have to make some huge changes in the future otherwise Big Noon is going to smoke them.
