CBS sideline reporter Jamie Erdahl briefly did some play-by-pay announcing during the early part of Saturday’s LSU-Alabama game in Baton Rouge, La. due to an audio issue.
At the 11:49 mark in the first quarter, there was no play-by-play commentary from the announcing team of Brad Nessler and Gary Danielson.

Erdahl came on and shared with viewers that CBS had lost Nessler and Danielson up in the booth. Things were somewhat quiet for a minute before Erdahl started to give more play-by-play around the 10:30 mark.
At the 9:47 mark in the first quarter, the announcing team returned and was able to start calling the action again.
