ESPN Announcers Go Gaga Over Alabama QB’s Beauty Queen Girlfriend During Title Game: ‘Wow!’

Jan. 8, 2013 7:38am Jonathon M. Seidl

Considering that Monday night’s college national championship game between Alabama and Notre Dame was dominated by Alabama, there weren’t many competitive highlights (‘Bama won 42-14). So easily the talk of the night has become the way ESPN announcers Brent Musburger and Kirk Herbstreit fawned over the stunning girlfriend of Alabama’s quarterback AJ McCarron.

See, McCarron is dating current Miss Alabama USA Katherine Webb:

As you can imagine, Webb was a spectator at the game and the cameras regularly found her in the crowd. And upon doing so the first time, Musburger and Herbstreit couldn’t contain themselves.

“You quarterbacks, you get all the good-looking women,” Musburger said, directing the comment at Herbstreit who is a former quarterback himself. “What a beautiful woman.”

“Wow! AJ’s doing some things right–” Herbstreit responded.

“Whoa,” Musburger interrupted, nearly breathless. “If you’re a youngster in Alabama, start gettin’ the football out and throw it around the backyard with pop.”

Webb felt the effects of that praise. As she told Yahoo! Sports, her Twitter page went crazy after the Musburger comments.

“My phone is dead,” she explained, a result of the constant messages because of the attention. “My followers went from 2,300 this morning to 96,000 by the end of the night. I don’t know if I should even check now, I don’t know what is going on.”

“I guess [Musburger] said something but I don’t know what it was because I haven’t seen it.”

She would later garner over 100,000 followers. She has over 116,000 as of this writing.

Musburger removes all doubt of his sexual orientation on national TV.
This opens the door for gay announcers to go ga ga now.
Way to go Brent.

Brent said she was lovely, and a beautiful woman. He may be an older man, but there is nothing wrong with his eyesight. There is nothing wrong or disrespectful in what he said. Miss Webb is gracious as well as lovely.

Listening to Brent loading his “spank bank” was hilarious. The poor guy should be allowed to retire.

P.S- Notre Dame was a joke as far as playing in a National Championship game!…If it was anyone but Notre Dame, they would have never been #1……………….Geez! They could barely beat a pathetic Pittsburgh team along with a couple others

Well chica is fine on top of fine with a side of fine and a heaping helping of fine for dessert. All the whiney, Liberal, hypocrite bitches that squawked about it can go fk themselves. Which is exactly what they should have been told. The more they are told this the quicker they will go away and just stfu.

  Paul, if you’re in the dog house try calling her up and asking her out on a date. Works for me sometimes.
