NBC college football analyst Todd Blackledge

Episode 330 of the Sports Media Podcast with Richard Deitsch features NBC’s Big Ten Saturday Night lead analyst Todd Blackledge. Blackledge’s first call will be West Virginia at Penn State on Sept. 2 at 7:30 on NBC and Peacock. Big Ten Football will air each week on NBC and stream live on Peacock. In this podcast, Blackledge discusses why he left ESPN for NBC; how NBC made him feel wanted; being the lead of a college football package; his opening weeks of the season and how he is preparing for them; how he’s trying to find chemistry with new partner Noah Eagle; whether he views ABC’s Saturday Night Football as competition; his upcoming Big Ten podcast with Eagle; whether he can separate someone hating to see the Pac-12 dissolve with the reality that the new Big Ten teams strengthens NBC’s schedule; the loudest stadium he has been to as a broadcaster, and more. You can subscribe to this podcast on Apple Podcasts, Google Play, Spotify, and more.
