This Saturday the No. 2 Florida State Seminoles and the No. 5 Notre Dame Fighting Irish will do battle in Tallahassee, FL in a game that has some major national championship implications. Of course, given how big this game is, ESPN College GameDay will be on hand for all of the festivities.

The question this past week has been who the celebrity pickers will be. Then, the speculation heated up even more this past week when GameDay producer Lee Fitting noted that there could be two on hand this Saturday.

Well that is indeed true and the two names are as big as you would expect.

According to a report from Noles247, baseball legend Ken Griffey Jr. and legendary quarterback Brett Favre will be sitting down with the guys prior to the games getting underway and giving their thoughts.

"According to a source, Noles247.com has confirmed that former baseball star Ken Griffey Jr. will be a guest picker on ESPN’s College GameDay on Saturday in Tallahassee.The same source also said that there will likely be two guests on stage. The other being former Green Bay Packer quarterback Brett Favre."

Sometimes ESPN fails to deliver on the big names, but not this time. Two of the biggest sporting legends of this generation battling with their college football picks ahead of one of the biggest games of the season should be an enjoyable sight to watch.
