College football fans are boycotting longtime announcer Gary Danielson.
Danielson, a longtime voice of the SEC, is now calling some of the Big Ten's top games. Saturday night, he and Brad Nessler, along with sideline reporter Jenny Dell, were on the call of the Big Ten Championship Game, featuring No. 1 Oregon and No. 5 Penn State. But not everyone was pleased with Danielson's performance. The longtime voice of the SEC has a lot of critics these days.
Danielson, 73, took heat for some of his comments on the air.
Gary Danielson's sage advice for Drew Allar is to be more like Tom Brady and Jared Goff.

Missed his calling in coaching
College football fans were quick to take to social media to announce their disdain for the top CBS broadcaster.
"Is it just me or is Gary Danielson blatantly rooting for Penn St. like he does for Alabama?" one fan wrote.
"We get it, Gary Danielson. You don't like Oregon," one fan added.
"Gary Danielson gets so bummed every time Oregon does something good, you can feel the sadness in his voice," one fan added.
"Have I mentioned how much better my life is now that Gary Danielson isn't calling SEC games?" one fan added.
"Brad Nessler and Gary Danielson are senile, ruining the broadcast. We need broadcaster term limits," one fan added.

ABC and ESPN will have the College Football Playoff games moving forward, so fans of the top teams in the country won't have to listen to the top CBS crew until 2025.
