I haven't seen anything about that yet.

I've seen a few people ask whey Krauss isn't going to be on the sidelines this year and a few have speculated his job in Indy is taking too much of his time.

Since Barry was on the sidelines last year during the PPV, and he was also the reporter during the radio broadcasts, I can only assume Chris takes that role as well.

Is this step one for his move to replace Eli in a few years? Seems logical.

I hope so. As good as Chris Stewart is on basketball games, I think he would be one of the best doing football.

i think he does a great job and is a great fit for the program. congrats, chris!

To me, Alabama football wouldn't be the same without Eli Gold announcing it, so I hope he won't be replaced too soon…

This is good news about Chris Stewart, though. But what happened to Barry Krauss?

 

[JoshB]

I doubt Eli will be replaced until hes ready to step down.

RE: Eli

It won't feel the same but you get adjust to. Fyffe has been gone for years now and it still isn't the same but I like Andy Burcham and Rod Bramlett

It's age...no different from older fans remembering Forney and Duncan.

Chris told me that during ppv games Tom Roberts will probably be the sideline reporter.

It's only one per year and I'm guessing it's going to be Ga. Southern. I don't think they'll choose to put an SEC game on PPV. But, then again, homecoming due to the start time?

 

[JoshB]

I would say ur assumption is prolly right. Been a long time since we've had an SEC game NOT televised, Kent State is on SEC Network, Penn State on ABC, and North Texas on Fox Sports Net. I would def. say GA State is gonna be our PPV game this year.
