ESPN’s College GameDay will take place in Columbus this weekend. Who will be the celebrity picker for the game between the Oklahoma and Ohio State?
Week 1 of the college football season saw a heavyweight showdown between the Alabama Crimson Tide and Florida State Seminoles. Two College Football Playoff contenders meant that ESPN’s College GameDay was certainly going to be on hand in Atlanta.
This week, another game between two potential playoff teams will take place as the Oklahoma Sooners and Ohio State Buckeyes battle in Columbus. That means that College GameDay will be live to preview the game ahead.
With the big game, comes the big pick by Lee Corso. Which mascot head will he ultimately end up putting on? It also means that there is going to be a celebrity picker that will help make the pick as well.
That means that it could be absolutely anyone making the picks this week. Conventional wisdom would mean someone from Ohio or Oklahoma.

For the Sooners, there wouldn’t be a better choice than WWE Hall of Famer Jim Ross. The greatest voice in professional wrestling history would make a great addition to the crew on Saturday.
For the Buckeyes, any slew of legends or even LeBron James would make for a great pick. Whoever does end up making the pick will ultimately have a tough decision on their hands. Both of these teams want a chance to add a signature win to their resume for the playoff committee near the end of the season.
