Ohio State and Michigan are squaring off in “The Game” on Saturday, and Gus Johnson is polarizing in the booth to call the game.
In the fourth quarter, Johnson may have just had his most iconic moment as a broadcaster ever,
While Michigan was on the two-yard line, they ran a play-action pass. Davis Warren attempted to throw to the left corner of the end-zone but would throw it right at Buckeye defender Jack Sawyer.
It was possibly a game-saving play, and Johnson lost his mind while trying to call the play but simultaneously lost his voice.

You at least have to admire Johnson’s deep investment in the games he calls, but it’s the last thing you want to hear if your team messes up like that.
Sometimes I don’t think Gus Johnson is watching the game he is calling.

Some Fans Have Not Liked Gus Johnson In The Booth For Ohio State vs. Michigan
As an announcer, it can be very hard to sound completely unbiased and for everyone to love you. Of course, for as much as people like Johnson in the booth, as many hate him.
It’s become very obvious that college football fans are extremely divided on their feelings towards the broadcaster.
Why does Gus Johnson have to call every Fox prime game? He's the worst in the business.
