College GameDay — the weekly show that fills up your screens, social media and group chats — has already added a little razzle-dazzle to the 2024-2025 season and is turning up the heat even more.
In Week 0, fans were treated to Nick Saban‘s debut, his first College Football Playoff predictions and GameDay picks. Not to be upstaged, WWE wrestler Sheamus appeared as the celebrity picker and rightfully trolled the GameDay staff after his pick, Georgia Tech, upset Florida State. But Week 1’s show might have just upped the score.
After missing last week in Dublin, media legend Lee Corso will again entertain fans with his picks. Additionally, Corso and the staff will be in Collge Station, Texas — and you guessed it —Texas A&M royalty Johnny Manziel is the celebrity picker. Manziel says he looks forward to “checking something off the bucket list this week. ” He also told fans that he needs them to be “loud and crazy” when Notre Dame comes to town.
