Twitter reacts to Gary Danielson’s love affair with Alabama

The CBS A-team of Verne Lundquist and Gary Danielson was tasked with calling Alabama’s 25-20 win over then-unbeaten Mississippi State last weekend, and as always fans had as many opinions about the broadcast team as the game itself.

The consensus among most who tuned in to watch the game is that Danielson is rather fond of the Alabama football program — perhaps too fond. Fans and media members sounded off on Danielson’s love affair with the Crimson Tide on Twitter during and after Saturday’s game.

Do the Alabama boosters cut Gary Danielson a check or pay for his house too? Good lord man.

Gary Danielson seems to have wildly different standards for pass interference based on whether a Bama player doing the interfering.

Was going to drink every time Gary Danielson praised Alabama, but we don't have enough beer.

I just love that Gary Danielson said "Can you say exhale?" after Alabama's touchdown was ruled official. Can you say favoritism?

I think Gary Danielson is in love with Alabama. Refuses to stop talking about how good they are
