As the dog days of summer drag on, more news is (slowly) being released about broadcast teams and commentator pairings ahead of the 2024 college football season.
For Clemson and other ACC schools, that includes a significant change in the top ACC Network broadcast booth this fall. ESPN announced last week that a familiar face would be shifting over from the mothership to call the ACC Network’s premier primetime matchup every week: Tom Luginbill.
In addition to his featured work on ESPN.com, Luginbill has been in an ESPN/ABC broadcast booth for several years and worked last season with the duo of Dave Pasch and Dusty Dvoracek. At ACC Network, he’ll replace former analyst Tim Hasselbeck, who accepted a high school coaching job in Nashville.
Wes Durham will remain the play-by-play voice of ACC Network’s top broadcast team while a new face debuts on the sidelines in former Virginia lacrosse player Dana Boyle. Boyle joined ESPN/ACC Network in 2020 and has been a reporter across various ESPN platforms. She will replace Taylor Tannebaum as sideline reporter.
With Clemson facing Appalachian State in Week 2 in primetime on ACC Network, it’s a safe bet that Durham, Luginbill and Boyle will be the broadcast team for the Tigers’ Sept. 7 home opener (8 p.m. ET).
In other broadcast news, The CW announced last week that veteran play-by-play voice Thom Brennaman would be that network’s new voice of ACC football in 2024. Brennaman will team with Max Browne in the booth with Treavor Scales working the sidelines.
More news about broadcast teams and commentator pairings will be finalized over the coming weeks.
