Keith Jackson laid down the soundtrack to Saturday for a generation of college football fans with phrases such as his signature "Whoa, Nelly!" Jackson is a member of the Sports Broadcasting Hall of Fame, and called more Rose Bowl games, 15, than any other announcer. Kirk Herbstreit was among the college football broadcasters paying tribute to Jackson on social media. After serving four years in the Marine Corps, Jackson broadcast his first college football game in 1952 as an undergraduate at Washington State. ———More AP college football: https://collegefootball.ap.org and https://twitter.com/AP—Top25
