College football fans react to Lee Corso’s picks on College GameDay at Ole Miss
Lee Corso is one of the main draws of College GameDay with his iconic headgear pick. College football fans had some thoughts on his performance this week.
Another college football Saturday means another edition of College GameDay for fans to enjoy.
This time broadcasting from The Grove at Ole Miss, the GameDay crew donned bowties and wore their Saturday best and drank Hotty Toddys.
As often happens on Saturday mornings, Lee Corso was the subject of his share of the discussion.

Cincinnati fans, who loved hearing Corso put them at No. 3 last week, weren’t so pleased this week.
“Cincinnati is out. They’re not a power 5 team” - Lee Corso.

You’re dead to me Lee.
He may have also pissed off some Aggie and Crimson Tide fans.
Still, fans continue to have mixed feelings about Corso, who is beloved but also past his prime.
I love Lee Corso and I always will, but it’s time. It’s time to move on and let someone else take over. This is very tough to watch.

Lee Corso is sounding more and more like Mickey Rooney in “The Year Without Santa Clause” #collegegameday

Lee Corso is so hard to watch on College GameDay these days. Dude just needs to step away and enjoy retirement

Lee Corso still thinks Tom Osborne is the AD at Nebraska. This is sad, idk why they keep putting him on TV

Corso is 86 years old and suffered a stroke more than a decade ago, so it’s pretty incredible he’s still able to manage the GameDay slate. Even if it’s not the same experience as it used to be, you’ve got to enjoy him while he’s there.
