New York & Los Angeles - College football on FOX just became must-watch TV this fall as the popular Erin Andrews, one of sports television's brightest stars, rejoins the FOX Sports family. A versatile broadcaster whose talent bridges sports and entertainment, Andrews' position includes hosting the new prime time college football pregame show, making significant contributions to the network's NFL and MLB coverage, along with other marquee sports properties.
