I was listening to the old guy who recently retired from calling Georgia’s games (I’m sure someone will post his name). Georgia scored on a 99 yard touchdown run and the guy said “Folks, I wish you could have seen what I just saw.”

Did you ever hear a show called Leonard’s Losers? Absolutely one of best/funniest prognosticators ever. Picked the losers of each game. Something like this:

“Georgia versus Florida. Georgia coach Vince Dooley leads a pack of hungry junkyard dawgs into Jacksonville to feast on some fresh king size lizard meat. But as any Florida swamper will tell you, a Gainesville Gator has a tough old hide and can bite just as hard as any Bulldog. Leonard’s Loser, in a close one, Florida.”

You are referring, I’m sure, to the late Larry Munson, the voice of the Dawgs for more than 40 years. But IMO, the best play-by-play announcer for an SEC school over the last 40 years was John Ward, who called UT Vols football and basketball for 30 years before retiring in 1998.
