Keith Jackson Tribute - Part 2
Continuing from Part 1... It's that time of year and we wax nostalgic as we miss hearing Keith Jackson calling the games.
Famous Fauxpas
"Aaaaannnd he misses it. So, they come away from this possession with nothing........except six points." - (a missed point after)
Almost intercepted!" Except there wasn't a Hurricane even around the ball. - (an incomplete pass thrown against Miami)
"Did he actually, literally spike it."
"By consensus, these teams rank one and two, with nary a vote of dissent."
Jackson: "When was the last time a school had one fullback named Brandon Schnittker, and the other named Brandon Joe?" Dan Fouts: "Never."
Dan Fouts: "Veni, Vidi, Vici"
Jackson: "Ah yes, how sweet the wine"
Jackson: "Only 19 seconds to play ... clock didn't move on that play."
Fouts: "That's an extra point, it's probably not going to ...
Keith Jackson Speaking ON
Top four names, words and phrases that sound 10 times more entertaining when Keith Jackson says them: (1) LenDale White; (2) Tostitos; (3) the speedster; (4) Frostee Rucker.
The camera catches a rear (end) view of Huskies offensive tackle Lincoln Kennedy in a three point stance, causing Jackson to remark: "And there's a moon rising over Pasadena."
On former Texas Quarterback Vince Young: "As an old defensive coach once said, 'He ain't got no handles,' but he led the country in passing this year."
On Golf: "Never have so many spent so much time to sit in relative comfort to brag about their failures."
"Ken Dorsey is 38-1 as a starter. He is the cool dude who drives this bus."
"Rest easy Woody, the new man has arrived."
"The '72 Trojans were the best football team I ever saw."
"...bust it up inside off right guard for 4 yards. He was smacked down hard on the play by Leroy Selmon, but that big 'ol tough Cornhusker farmboy just bounced right back up and trotted back to the huddle. They really grow 'em tough out there in the cornfields of Nebraska, don't they?"
Jackson on Michigan
"A lot of people thought Penn State would win this game going away, but Michigan is Michigan. They'll hunker down with you."
"Oh my goodness.... Look at that....One man. Goodbye. Hello Heisman." - (Desmond Howard's punt return for a TD, then pose against Ohio.)
"Now the Michigan Wolverines are assembled in the tunnel and the crowd is coming to it's feet, and when the Wolves come on to the field, you'll hear a roar that will knock pine cones out of trees 50 miles away."
"Michigan has such grandiosity. It has all those all-Americans. You can't go anywhere without finding a Michigan graduate.''
During the 98 Rose Bowl... "The last time Brian Griese ran that far, his daddy was chasing him with a stick."
"You know who the MVP is, well I'll tell you, I'm standing next to his proud poppa." - (Jackson standing next to his co-announcer Bob Griese, father of 98 Rose Bowl MVP Brian Griese)
Jackson on a broadcast booth incident with Howard Cosell: "He had the cigar, all that vodka. I almost threw him out of the booth myself. Howard did throw up all over Meredith's cowboy boots. It was 28 degrees in Philly and Cosell had been drinking for three hours," Howard Cosell, smelling like a Russian distillery, had set Jackson's pants on fire during a telecast of Monday Night Football.
