College GameDay was live from Ann Arbor on Saturday ahead of a huge Rivalry Week showdown between No. 1 Ohio State and the Michigan Wolverines.
While The Game should provide plenty of intrigue and drama, there are also some huge SEC matchups on the slate today. We saw Texas A&M lose for the first time this year at Texas on Saturday. We also saw Georgia narrowly escape a tough Georgia Tech squad. Today’s big matchups include Tennessee-Vanderbilt and, of course, the Iron Bowl.
The GameDay crew of Stanford Steve, Rece Davis, Desmond Howard, Nick Saban, Pat McAfee and Kirk Herbstreit was joined by Detroit Lions (and former Michigan) star Aidan Hutchinson to pick some of the day’s biggest games.
Herbstreit picked LSU (+11.5) at Oklahoma as his super dog.
Here’s who the guys think will win some of the top SEC matchups during Rivalry Week:
Florida State at Florida
- Desmond: Florida
- Saban: Florida
- McAfee: Florida State
- Hutchinson: Florida
- Herbstreit: Florida State
Clemson at South Carolina
- Desmond: Clemson
- Saban: South Carolina
- McAfee: South Carolina
- Hutchinson: South Carolina
- Herbstreit: Clemson
No. 14 Vanderbilt at No. 19 Tennessee
- Desmond: Tennessee
- Saban: Tennessee
- McAfee: Vanderbilt
- Hutchinson: Vanderbilt
- Herbstreit: Vanderbilt
No. 10 Alabama at Auburn
- Desmond: Alabama
- Saban: Alabama
- McAfee: Alabama
- Hutchinson: Alabama
- Herbstreit: No pick (he’s calling the game)
Will the guys be proven right? We’ll find out over the course of an excellent Rivalry Week slate!
