The voice of the SEC, Mr. Paul Finebaum will embark on a new adventure during Saturday’s Iron Bowl meeting between the Alabama Crimson Tide and the Auburn Tigers by hosting a live call-in show during the game on the SEC Network.

This means we can hear from infamous Finebaum callers like noted Alabama fan Phyllis and Auburn fan Tammy as those curious to watch the world burn can turn over from the game broadcast on ESPN where Brent Musberger will be on the call over to the SEC Network for a presentation that is sure to attract the viewers who are curious to see the madness that ensues.

"“We hope fans will call in and you can get fan reaction as the game is going live,” ESPN senior vice president of college sports programming Burke Magnus said, via SI.com. “The feeling for us was this is authentically SEC. Paul is sort of the cornerstone voice of the network in a lot of ways, from his daily radio show to his work on SEC Nation. It is something we have not tried before and we felt like this was unique to the SEC.”"

This is certainly something that is unique to the SEC as the Iron Bowl rivalry is unlike any other rivalry in college football because of the fans involved and the lengths they go to express their fondness for their favorite team.

I’ll be focused on watching the actual game than a radio show on TV, but I’ll likely pop over for a few minutes at various times during the game to see if Finebaum has pulled out what’s remaining of his hair.

Godspeed, Pawllll.
