If you’re planning to make a “Hey, why do Matt and Drew look like the ESPN guys calling the Kentucky game?” joke this weekend, please know that we’ve heard it. Many, many times.
With No. 21 Texas coming to Kroger Field on Saturday, ESPN has assigned play-by-play broadcaster Dave Flemming and analyst Brock Osweiler to the call. That’s a nightmare for KSR’s mentions because those two have been our unofficial lookalikes for years.
It’s mostly Matt, whose uncanny resemblance to Dave Flemming has been a long-running joke among listeners. Then, a couple of years ago, ESPN paired Flemming with former NFL quarterback Brock Osweiler, and suddenly I was pulled into the bit.
