College Football Week #14; ESPN, Fox, CBS and other nets run rivalry dandies, like Ohio State-Michigan

• Week # 13 is upon us. It begins with two games tonight, one Thanksgiving night, more than a dozen on Friday and a heavy slate Saturday

• Fox is proud of its numbers. Last week’s Ohio State’s 28-17 win did a 6.3. The network said it was the second highest of the season overall, behind the game of the season, the LSU win over Alabama on CBS which did a whopping 9.7

• Double duty fellows this week include Tim Brand, Dave LaMont, Michael Reghi and Joe Davis. Joe needs a little more life to his broadcast. He’s solid, weaves in a story and is spot-on. A little more enthusiasm please!

• Predominantly a soccer broadcaster John Strong works Maryland at Michigan State football game for Fox Saturday

• Drew Goodman who calls games out in the Rocky Mountains also does the Rockies. Other baseball guts working this weekend include, Jason Benetti, Dave O’Brien and Dave Flemming. They’re all good calling all sports

• Ted Robinson’s  still doing games. He lost Niners job and doesn’t do NBC work anymore.  He and Roxy Bernstein are the two lead voices for the Pac-12 Network

• I hadn’t seen Ari Wolfe’s name in a while. He got an assignment this week.

Jake Baskin’s thumbnail: Chris Vosters:

Chris Vosters gets a turn in the Fox Sports (FS1) rotation on the early Saturday afternoon Big Ten matchup between in-state rivals Northwestern and Illinois. His partner is former Kansas State and NFL linebacker Ben Leber. The two worked together in Weeks #1 and #2.

Vosters, 28, grew up in the Milwaukee area and attended the University of Wisconsin, graduating in 2013. While in Madison, he participated in Big Ten Network’s Student U program, which allows students to get experience on TV-style broadcasts. He was the first graduate of Student U to call men’s basketball and football for BTN.

Out of college, Vosters got his first on-air work in Minor League Baseball. He spent a year as the #2 voice of the Double-A Frisco RoughRiders before taking over as the lead announcer for the Single-A Great Lakes Loons. He worked with the Loons for four seasons, and during the baseball offseason, he would call high school and college sports in the Midland, Michigan area. (Gary Gerould, the radio voice of the Sacramento Kings, was born in Midland.)

Over the course of the last two years, Vosters has worn many play-by-play hats. He has called games under the Fox, NBC, and ESPN banners and has built his niche on the Big Ten Network, working games in every sport thrown in front of him. This season, his schedule has included volleyball, soccer, and hockey, both field and ice, in addition to football and basketball.

Winter sports are where Vosters has had his most high-profile assignments thus far. He was tabbed by BTN to call the 2019 Frozen Four, the national championship of NCAA women’s hockey. He also worked the 4K telecast on figure skating for NBC Sports during their coverage of the Pyeongchang Olympics.
