Legendary college football play-by-play man Keith Jackson and former Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice will be the featured guests on Fox College Saturday. Should make for some interesting discussions.  Rice was recently named to the panel that will decide the four playoff teams to compete for the national title next year.
Here's the release from Fox:

Legendary Broadcaster Keith Jackson Joins The Show In Studio
New York, NY – FOX Sports welcomes two huge names to the FOX COLLEGE SATURDAY pregame show, as former Secretary of StateCondoleezza Rice and legendary broadcaster Keith Jackson join the program this weekend.

Rice was named on Wednesday to the College Football Playoff selection committee and sits down with FOX Sports’ Pam Oliver to discuss her new position and addresses the criticism that has come with it.

“I come at this as somebody who’s had lots of decision-making experience, under pressure, trying to evaluate all of the evidence and come to a decision, and doing it with a team, I think that’s very important,” Rice says. “And I was of course provost at Stanford, and Stanford athletics reported to me, so I have the professional experience with the sport as well. Mostly, it’s because I’d love to see us get this right.”

The most recognizable voice in college football history, Jackson joins FOX COLLEGE SATURDAY live from the FOX Network Center studios in Los Angeles to talk about the state of college football today.
