FAYETTEVILLE — The Saturday forecast for Arlington, Texas, calls for rain, with conditions right for an instant classic.
Arkansas and Texas A&M have turned in some memorable finishes over the years at AT&T Stadium. And announcer Joe Tessitore has been in the ESPN booth for some of college football's best games of the past decade.
But never have the two forces met until Saturday's 8:15 p.m. kickoff on ESPN. Tessitore will be on the call with color analyst Todd Blackledge and field reporter Holly Rowe.
By now you've surely heard of the "Tess Effect" - Internet slang for the zany finishes that Tessitore's voice has narrated.
