It may be the first time that an ABC national audience is exposed to a Rutgers football home game, but the voice describing the action already has seen the Piscataway crowd at its most raucous.
Chris Fowler, who will call play-by-play alongside analyst Kirk Herbstreit when Rutgers hosts unbeaten No. 1 Ohio State at 8 p.m. Saturday, was in the Thursday night ESPN television booth for the team’s landmark win against Louisville in 2006 and again when it upset then-No. 2 South Florida in 2007.
“It’s a different setup than those games,” Fowler told Gannett New Jersey.
