The Penn State-SMU game is set for Saturday at noon ET at Beaver Stadium on TNT and HBO Max, and the winner of this game will face No. 3 seed Boise State in the Fiesta Bowl on December 31.

If you’re here, you might be wondering who’s voices you’re hearing on TNT and Max during the Penn State-SMU game. Fear not: We have the answers!

For the CFP first-round game between Penn State and SMU, ESPN’s Mark Jones, Roddy Jones and Quint Kessenich will be on the call.
