College GameDay was live from Nashville on Saturday morning to preview a Week 9 showdown between No. 10 Vanderbilt and No. 15 Mizzou.

The game is perhaps the most impactful on the Week 9 SEC slate, as the winner will take a major step toward a Playoff berth, while the loser will have no more room for error heading into the final month of the regular season.

The GameDay crew of Stanford Steve, Rece Davis, Kirk Herbstreit, Desmond Howard, Nick Saban and Pat McAfee was joined by comedian Nate Bargatze, a Nashville native and Vanderbilt fan, to pick winners from Saturday’s Week 9 SEC slate.

Stanford Steve picked Ole Miss (+5.5) at Oklahoma as his super dog. Howard picked Mississippi State (+7.5) vs. Texas as his super dog.

Here’s a look at who the guys think will win Saturday’s biggest Week 9 matchups.

No. 22 Texas at Mississippi State

  • Desmond: Mississippi State
  • Saban: Texas
  • McAfee: Mississippi State
  • Bargatze: Texas
  • Herbstreit: Texas

No. 8 Ole Miss at No. 13 Oklahoma

  • Desmond: Ole Miss
  • Saban: Oklahoma
  • Bargatze: Ole Miss
  • McAfee: Oklahoma
  • Herbstreit: Oklahoma

No. 3 Texas A&M at No. 20 LSU

  • Desmond: Texas A&M
  • Saban: Texas A&M
  • Bargatze: LSU
  • McAfee: Texas A&M
  • Herbstreit: No pick (he’s calling the game)

No. 15 Mizzou at No. 10 Vanderbilt

  • Desmond: Mizzou
  • Saban: Vanderbilt
  • Bargatze: Vanderbilt
  • McAfee: Vanderbilt
  • Herbstreit: Vanderbilt
