Lee Corso hopes to be joined by a special guest during the headgear pick for Saturday’s College GameDay.
The GameDay crew is in Knoxville for No. 11 Tennessee’s game against No. 20 Florida. In a pre-show conversation shared by Kirk Herbstreit, Corso revealed that Smokey could be joining the set.
“Who’re you gonna pick?” Herbstreit asked Corso.
“Smokey,” Corso answered in a hushed tone. “Listen, we might get Smokey on the set.”
“The real Smokey?” Herbstreit replied in question.
“Yeah, the real Smokey,” Corso confirmed. “I’m hoping he doesn’t bite me.”
“Good morning sweetheart!” ??

Per ESPN’s Julie McKay, the Vols have only been picked 5 times by Corso and he is 3-2 in those games and 8-4 when picking against Tennessee. Corso is 15-7 when sporting Florida headgear and 5-7 picking against the Gators.
Saturday’s celebrity guest picker joining Corso, Herbstreit and company is Bianca Belair of the WWE, a Knoxville and Tennessee alumna.
