College GameDay was live from Columbus, Ohio, on Saturday morning ahead of a top-10 showdown between Ohio State and Penn State.

It was just last year that CJ Stroud was playing in this game, leading the Buckeyes to a 44-31 victory at Penn State.

On Saturday, the sensational Houston Texans rookie QB was the celebrity guest picker for the popular ESPN pregame show. As you might expect, he picked the Buckeyes to down Penn State on Saturday.

But Stroud and the crew of Desmond Howard, Pat McAfee, Lee Corso and Kirk Herbstreit also made picks for a big Week 8 SEC matchup.

Here’s a look at who the guys think will win on Saturday:

No. 17 Tennessee at No. 11 Alabama

  • Des: Alabama
  • McAfee: Alabama
  • Stroud: Alabama
  • Corso: Alabama
  • Herbie: Alabama

Will the crew and Stroud be proven right? Can the Tide avenge last year’s loss to the Vols? We’ll see how Week 8 unfolds around the SEC!
