Pat McAfee will broadcast six college football games on ESPN2 in the 2022-2023 season.
The former Colts gambler will team up with his former quarterback Peyton Manning with Omaha Productions on the call. Manning attended McAfee’s show on Thursday to announce the news.
“Peyton, you’re the damn man,” McAfee said. “Thanks for the opportunity, thanks for the business.”
“I can’t thank you enough, man,” Manning said on Thursday’s show. “Looking forward to it. You are the best. Looking forward to being your teammate again, if you want.”

Manning and his brother Eli embarked on a simulcast least NFL season considered the “ManningCast” that took place on ESPN2 during “Monday Night Football”. Its popularity prompted MLB to do a similar version of the Sunday night simulcast called “KayRod” with Alex Rodriguez and Michael Kay.
McAfee will follow suit next season with this format during six college football games on Saturday. Likewise, he will also have guests on the show every game. ESPN continues to showcase the most important broadcasts from each game.
The six games have not been released for McAfee’s unnamed simulcast. However, the host called them “big a–” games.
