Look, I’ll always have a special place in my heart for the SEC on CBS theme and, sure, seeing the Big Ten logos load up around the “eye” while that theme plays feels a little like seeing your ex-girlfriend in the passenger seat of some other guy’s car, but then you have to remember that theme came with Gary Danielson and that’s when you start to remember all of your ex-girlfriend’s baggage and how that new guy is now going to have to be the one to deal with that sнit. So, you just smile and wave goodbye as they pass.
The fact is, that little intro theme will appear at the beginning of the game, at halftime, and during a few key commercial breaks, but the other 98% of the game will involve an announce team that doesn’t include Gary Danielson. I think that’s a fair trade and it’s not terrible.
