ESPN Adds “MNF” Crew To Alabama-Clemson Championship Game

Just when you thought the end of the season meant the end of the “MNF” crew, ESPN goes and does something like this…

When the Alabama Crimson Tide and Clemson Tigers take the field on Monday for the College Football Playoff Championship Game — ESPN plans to have the trio of Joe Tessitore, Jason Witten and Booger McFarland teaming up with Todd McShay to provide an X’s and O’s-style telecast from the game site in Santa Clara as part of planned MegaCast coverage around the event.

Joe Tessitore, Booger McFarland, Jason Witten and Todd McShay will call Monday’s Alabama-Clemson CFP Championship on ESPNews. The “MNF Film Room” will replace the “Coaches Film Room” this year. ($) https://t.co/0tmWpQe209 ($)

During the entire 2018 regular season, fans complained constantly about the crew, whether it was Jason Witten just not making any sense at times or stating the obvious way too much — Booger McFarland’s cart blocking the view of paying fans at the game or Joe Tessitore taking personal shots at athletes just to make a point.
