Gary Danielson getting called out for CBS broadcast of LSU at Ole Miss

Gary Danielson took the brunt of criticism on Saturday during the broadcast of the LSU at Ole Miss game on CBS Sports.

LSU got off to a good start in the game, and at least one Tiger fan was uncomfortable about Danielson saying positive things about LSU. Meanwhile, another fan said that SEC fans are excited to share their dislike of Danielson with incoming members Oklahoma and Texas.

It wasn’t the cleanest half of football, and the extended commercials rubbed plenty of fans the wrong way, as Ole Miss took the lead late in the second quarter.

Danielson said the story of the first half was the Ole Miss defense, because LSU coaches figured they could come into the game and play bully ball, but it didn’t work, according to Danielson.

Here’s a sample of what fans had to say about Danielson:

“They had the hurricane thing.” — Gary Danielson

Thoughts and prayers as we have to listen to Gary Danielson for 4 quarters today.

Can’t decide which is worse about having to watch CFB games on CBS: all the commercials or Gary Danielson.

@Outkick @ClayTravis The sports world needs weekly stat segment for Gary Danielson on his terrible guesses b4 snap. He just made the wrong call on almost every attempt. I’m not a hater, but makes me miss Aaron Murray and Rick Neuheisel as an AU fan. Verne made him sufferable

Can’t wait until the CBS tv deal expires. All of these commercials and Gary Danielson are a terrible combo

How can Gary Danielson sit up there and praise the Ole Miss line for a backup center when LSU is clearly the more injuries team and O-Line. @TBob53

How long has Gary Danielson been covering SEC games? How much longer before he pronounces Ole Miss correctly. Drop the “D” you buffoon.
