Respectfully disagree. Not a big fan of his at all. He just talks way too much.

Wait, Tirico is going to do the Monday night football game tonight in Seattle, get to sleep at 3 AM Eastern, and then do a game 3,000 miles away at 7:15? My goodness does he love his alma mater. Good for him

Syracuse :43.0469° N latitude
Seattle: 47.6097° N latitude

That's crazy. Unless he's flying private (totally possible), he's not getting to Syracuse before 1 pm at the earliest.

Wow!!!!! That's big time for Tirico to come all the way from Seattle to Syracuse for this game and one thing you know for sure is he will be well prepared. IMO there no play by play guy that is more prepared for the teams he is calling and that goes for all sports he does (NFL, NBA, NCAA)

That's being pretty hard on him.
Mike generally does a strong, professional job.

I didn't mean it in a negative way at all - Tirico is one of the most talented broadcasters in the business. But there's no denying that he goes out of his way at every opportunity to make Cuse references - and I think it's great.

He'll get a reference in once a broadcast, just like Sean McDonnough is good for one "Harvard of Central New York" reference a broadcast, but I find both to be pretty evenhanded for actual coverage. Turns our they know what they're doing down in Newhouse.

Tirico is the man. I could enjoy listening to him do the game by himself. I'm not as familiar with Dakich, so I can't say.
As for Andy Katz, you could tell me some random ESPN employee to be named later would be filling in(usually a scary thought considering the sorry lot they employ) for him, and I'd be happy with my chances.
