College GameDay was live from Baton Rouge, Louisiana, on Saturday morning ahead of the big-time SEC showdown between No. 15 LSU and No. 11 Alabama.

Many see this as a College Football Playoff elimination game, and that’s probably accurate. The atmosphere is sure to be rocking in Death Valley for this matchup that kicks off at 6:30 p.m. local time.

The College GameDay crew of Rece Davis, Desmond Howard, Nick Saban, Pat McAfee, Lee Corso and Kirk Herbstreit was joined by Livvy Dunne and Paul Skenes to make picks for some key SEC showdowns. Dunne is a former LSU gymnast and social media star. Skenes was the No. 1 overall pick of the Pittsburgh Pirates out of LSU and just finished an incredible rookie season.

Herbstreit and Saban both picked Vanderbilt (+6.5) at home against South Carolina as their superdog picks. None of the other guys had superdogs from the SEC.

Here’s a look at the key matchups the crew picked to win in Week 11:

No. 3 Georgia at No. 16 Ole Miss

  • Desmond: Ole Miss
  • Saban: Georgia
  • McAfee: Georgia
  • Livvy and Paul: Georgia
  • Corso: Ole Miss
  • Herbstreit: Georgia

South Carolina at Vanderbilt

  • Desmond: South Carolina
  • Saban: Vanderbilt
  • McAfee: South Carolina
  • Livvy and Paul: Vanderbilt
  • Corso: South Carolina
  • Herbstreit: South Carolina

No. 11 Alabama at No. 15 LSU

  • Desmond: LSU
  • Saban: Alabama
  • McAfee: LSU
  • Livvy and Paul: LSU
  • Corso: LSU
  • Herbstreit: No pick (he’s calling the game)

Who will be proven right? Will Livvy and Paul be able to unseat Phillies slugger and former Indiana player Kyle Schwarber atop the celebrity guest picker standings?

Tune in to all the great SEC action on Saturday afternoon to find out!
