ESPN make major College GameDay announcement despite Lee Corso retirement calls and Pat McAfee chaosLocation:
The astounding viewership numbers for the most recent College GameDay program have been made public by EPSN.
The most recent episode of the popular program was shown live from the University of Georgia during the Bulldogs’ game against the Tenessee Volunteers.
Last season’s huge viewership was partly due to the addition of Pat McAfee and Nick Saban.
ESPN posted the results on social media, showing that the success has continued into the new season.
A staggering two million people watched the live broadcast from Athens in week twelve on average.
With 2.6 million American football enthusiasts watching the show’s last hour, the numbers were much higher.

However, during the broadcast, the show’s peak viewership was 2.9 million.
The show is on track to have its best-ever campaign, with an average of 2.1 million viewers so far this season.
However, McAfee and Saban’s new signings aren’t solely responsible for the success.
Long-term celebritiesKirk Herbstreit, Lee Corso, Desmond Howard, and Rece Davis have all contributed with a fantastic on-air dynamic.
However, Corso’s future is still a topic of discussion after his recent return from a health care facility.
During the Week 8 broadcast from the University of Texas, the 89-year-old occasionally lost his train of thought.

Additionally, his concerning appearance led many NFL and college football fans to demand that the veteran broadcast end its run.
On X, someone wrote: “I’m going to say it.
“You must remove him from the show. He has too much significance for everyone’s childhood, nostalgia, and college football fans in general.
“Every weekend, make Pat wear a Corso head and honor him.
“I think you let the headgear go when Corso goes,” another person remarked.
Another person added: “He should resign now. What a run.
