Episode 514 of "SI Media With Jimmy Traina" features a conversation with CBS' lead college football play-by-play man, Brad Nessler.

Nessler talks about CBS losing the SEC and landing the Big Ten, replacing the legendary Verne Lundquist and the one college football stadium he has never called a game in.

Nessler also shares stories about the various analysts he's worked with through the years, reveals the one event he hasn't called, but would like to and weighs in on what he thinks of Tom Brady and Nick Saban as television stars and much more.
