Who did Lee Corso select with his headgear pick on College GameDay for Saturday’s game between Ohio State and Michigan?

On Saturday, Lee Corso and the College GameDay crew are in Columbus, OH for a Big Ten matchup between the Ohio State Buckeyes and Michigan Wolverines. This game has plenty of implications for both teams as they step into Ohio Stadium at 12:00 p.m. ET.

Ohio State and Michigan come into this game as the No. 2 and No. 3 teams, respectively, in the College Football Playoff Ranking. They both have one loss too, so the perception is the winner of this will make the College Football Playoff, while the loser will be left out. It makes this game arguably the most important regular season contest of the season for any team. Add in the rivalry that the Buckeyes and Wolverines have had over the decades, and it brings up the intensity that much more.

A Michigan win would clinch them the Big Ten East. However, if OSU wins, there will be a three-way tiebreaker with Penn State, who beat the Buckeyes earlier this season. That would mean the Nittany Lions clinch the Big Ten East, further complicating things.

This game would potentially be the biggest one of the season that Corso has had to choose. He even had to do so inside Ohio Stadium. What would the choice be?

Ohio State vs. Michigan could have a “Game of the Century” like feel to it. This is about as big as it’s going to get in college football this year, outside of the College Football Playoff. Both teams will look to put on their best performance of the year in hope of being a top four team for the postseason.
