Once upon a time, Saturday afternoons only had the "Game of the Week," that would feature two of the heavy hitters in college football. Now, with ESPN, ESPN2, Fox Sports, Fox Regional Coverage, ABC, CBS, NBC, a few other icons and the BBC (supposedly) broadcasting college football games on Thursday, Friday and Saturday, it kind of makes it hard to sort out what the best games are. For many, though, the best game was simple - it was the one that Keith Jackson was broadcasting. Sure, every year there'd be a few games that he would call regardless of the team's standings - Ohio State versus Michigan was one such game. He'd call a few of the bowl games as well, and you would tune into them regardless of who did the broadcasting. But having Keith Jackson in town meant something. It meant that you were getting the best game, and the best broadcaster in college football. It meant that your team - or the visiting team - was worthy of national attention. Today, there are so many games on television, and so many announcing pairs, that its hard to separate the pack. There are some good ones - of course, hearing Dan Fouts talk college football is always worthwhile. Bob Griese is another one who's awfully good. But neither is quite as good as Jackson. Even when Fouts was paired with Jackson, it was Jackson who got the interest. I'm quite sure that come September, when the games start up again, that no one is going to spend a lot of time lamenting the retirement of Keith Jackson. But some time in November, when the "big uglies" are going at it in the trenches, you're going to think for a moment, and wonder what the game would sound like on television had Keith Jackson called it. Maybe it would only be a fleeting moment, for the game would demand your attention, but you'd still think it. And that is a legacy.
