Ms. Terry shames Nick Saban for picking against Colorado: ‘I got your back Deion’

Ms. Terry and Nick Saban shared a funny moment during the picks segment of College GameDay on Saturday morning.

Saban has typically picked Colorado this season when the Buffs have come up during picks, but he went away from that philosophy on Saturday morning. Instead, he’s taking UCF to win that game over Deion Sanders’ team.

Ms. Terry, serving as guest picker, was appalled after Saban announced he was picking against Sanders and the Buffs.

“Against our good friend Deion?” Ms. Terry said after a gasp. “Really? He texted you this week and said what a great job you were doing. I’ve got your back, Deion. Colorado!”

Here’s video of the moment:

Saban and Sanders have appeared in multiple commercials together with Aflac, so there’s a pre-existing relationship there. It’s a bit surprising to see Saban pick against Sanders, but the Buffs are 2-touchdown underdogs on the road on Saturday vs. the Golden Knights.

Colorado is 3-1 on the season going into Saturday’s game against UCF.
