College football television broadcast teams: Week 8
Here is who will be calling the notable games on the Week 8 college football schedule.
Week 8 of the 2016 college football season features three match-ups between ranked teams, all in the SEC. No. 6 Texas A&M vs. No. 1 Alabama is the highlight of the mid-afternoon slate of games, with No. 17 Arkansas vs. No. 21 Auburn and No. 23 Ole Miss vs. No. 25 LSU featured on the evening schedule. Otherwise, there are a lot of other top 25 teams in action this week.
The Saturday night ABC team of Chris Fowler, Kirk Herbstreit and Samantha Ponder will have Ohio State for the second straight week, as the No. 2-ranked Buckeyes travel to take on Penn State.
