College football announcers 2022: Who is calling every bowl game on TV?

Here’s who will be calling every matchup during bowl season.

One of college football’s greatest traditions is finally upon us once more: bowl season.

Admittedly, between the institution of the College Football Playoff and the proliferation of players opting out to prepare for the upcoming NFL Draft, the postseason has lost a bit of luster. But that doesn’t mean there won’t be tons of fantastic football to consume this holiday season.

Bowl season officially began on Friday morning with the Bahamas Bowl matchup between UAB beating Miami (Ohio). Friday also featured one of the only three contests pitting ranked opponents against each other outside of the New Year’s Six in the Cure Bowl between No. 24 Troy beating No. 25 UTSA, the respective champions out of the Sun Belt and Conference USA.

However, things kick into full swing on Saturday with a full slate of games, including a matchup between Power Five opponents. Here’s the television info and broadcasting team for every bowl game.

Note: All times are listed in ET.

CBS announced commentators for first 2 Jaguars games

The commentary pairing for Jacksonville’s first two games was announced by CBS Sports.

CBS revealed its lineup of game commentators for the first two weeks of the NFL regular season on Tuesday. That included the Jacksonville Jaguars’ season opener against Houston (AKA the pending debut of Trevor Lawrence), which will be called by CBS Sports’ Greg Gumbel, Adam Archuleta, and A.J. Ross.

After its only win a year ago came during Week 1, Jacksonville has another winnable opener against a Texans team surrounded by question marks both on and off the field.

We also know who will be in the booth for the Jags’ home-opener the following week against Denver. Neither team is expected to be particularly good this year, and it’s another game that could go either way for the Jags. Spero Dedes and Jay Feely will be on the call.

Both of these first two games will provide potentially winnable opportunities for the Jaguars coming off a 1-15 season, but since neither present many storylines of national interest aside from Lawrence’s play, neither were able to land the commentary A-team of Jim Nantz and Tony Romo.
