Golic shares the excitement many fans have over the start of the college football season. For Golic, the experience must have been especially uplifting.

Golic hosted a radio show for ESPN from 2000 until this summer. Losing that job was difficult to endure (talked about the difficulties of having his show canceled). Getting the opportunity to be active and talk sports again likely renewed energy and excitement for the veteran sports analyst.
