Gary Danielson getting called out for CBS broadcast of Auburn at Texas A&M

Gary Danielson and Brad Nessler were in the booth at Kyle Field on Saturday for the Auburn-Texas A&M game, the only meeting between ranked teams this week in the SEC.

Fans from inside and outside of Kyle Field took issue with Danielson’s comments during the game, and his reputation of mispronouncing players. One fan even mentioned a potential boyfriend getting approval from her father by mentioning how much they gate Danielson.

The game itself was a defensive struggle, and field goal contest as each offense moved the ball at times, but largely stalled near the goal line.

Here’s a sampling of some of the fan reaction to Danielson:

@CBSSports is Gary Danielson really the best you can do? Brad Nessler deserves so much better.

If I ever want my Dad to approve of someone I’m dating, I’ll just tell them to casually mention how much they hate Gary Danielson. 😂

I’m normally pretty neutral about Gary Danielson, but he did just say that any play that gains 4 yards on first down is successful. And that is just fully inaccurate.

@CBS @SEConCBS Did Gary Danielson just make a joke about the NFL news? I mean it’s not like someone died and another person will most likely spend time in jail. Tact-less. Gary you should be ashamed.

Only Gary Danielson would blame that call on the guy calling fair catch, not the guy running into a defenseless receiver #GigEm #WarEagle

Hey @CBS, where are we with the “Mute Gary Danielson” option on your broadcast?
