UGA alum Olivia Harlan to work college football sidelines for ESPN

Published: Aug 14, 2015 · 11:38 AM EDT

While Samantha Ponder won’t be seen on the sidelines anymore, Olivia Harlan will join the ESPN team and be the next college football sideline reporter for the network.

Harlan is a University of Georgia graduate and the daughter of TNT broadcaster Kevin Harlan.

She will be paired with Adam Amin and Kelly Stouffer during college football games on ESPN, ESPN2 and ABC this fall. Harlan previously worked for Fox Sports South and was also Miss Kansas Teen USA in 2010.

My face reflects how #painful Monday nights game was 😁 but we'll come back #stronger #tonight at #home. Tune into Fox Sports South at 7 for #Hawks v Wizards. Or if you remember #KrisHumphries and want to watch him
