Herm Edwards is just making extra money commentating on college games.  The guy knows the NFL.  He's on that show Audibles and does pretty well.  He's usually good for a primary source regarding professional football.

College?  Eehhhh....

You can't tell me that they are so desperate for color guys that Herm Edwards is the best they could find.  Pro football, yes.  There are only 32 teams to know about.  But 119 or whatever?  He is in over his head.

i think they SHOULD be criticized.  When a guy at home can dissect plays and come up with things to say and cute local interest stories and stuff for his blog that he writes from his armchair, is it too much to ask that the color guy who is getting paid shitloads of money put forth a little effort?

I am with Snaggie-pooh.

If you don't like how they say it, that's cool.  But now I understand you to say they don't know what they're talking about with regards to football, but fans do?

It's not just yall. WTF? Being any kind of announcer for college football is a good gig. You do one maybe 2 games a week. Do some research, learn how to pronouce Samoan names, know the difference between a smoke draw and an end around.
I could do this better than most of the folks I hear every week. Pathetic.
Our Razorback announcers suck balls. Used to, I would turn off the TV sound and listen to Paul Eels on the radio. That's over with, with his demise.
