Part of ESPN analyst Kirk Herbstreit’s job is to make predictions during ESPN’s “College GameDay.” Each week, we’ll keep track of how the former Ohio State quarterback’s SEC prognostication is going for the 2015 season.

This week: 1-2
Season: 9-8

THE PICKS

Week 5 was unkind to Herbstreit as his season record fell to just one game over .500. He had Alabama beating Georgia but misfired on his other two SEC picks.

WIN: Alabama over Georgia — He thought it would be a bit closer, but Herbstreit correctly pegged the Crimson Tide to win between the hedges.

LOSS: Ole Miss over Florida — Hard to be too tough on him for this one. Not too many people had Florida rolling the Rebels.

LOSS: Mississippi State over Texas A&M — The Aggies were too much for Mississippi State on Saturday night at Kyle Field, 30-17.
