College GameDay was live from Athens, Georgia, ahead of a top-10 showdown between the Georgia Bulldogs and the Ole Miss Rebels on Saturday.
That game is sandwiched in the middle of an amazing day of SEC football, which also features ranked matchups between LSU-Vanderbilt and Alabama-Tennessee.
The GameDay crew of Rece Davis, Stanford Steve, Desmond Howard, Nick Saban, Pat McAfee and Kirk Herbstreit was joined by musician Jelly Roll to pick winners for some of the biggest games of the day, including the top-tier SEC action.
Stanford Steve picked South Carolina (+4.5) against Oklahoma as his super dog. No one else had a super dog pick involving an SEC team.
Here’s a look at how the crew and Jelly Roll picked the biggest SEC games of Saturday’s Week 8 slate:
No. 10 LSU at No. 17 Vanderbilt
- Desmond: Vanderbilt
- Saban: LSU
- McAfee: Vanderbilt
- Jelly Roll: Vanderbilt
- Herbstreit: Vanderbilt
No. 11 Tennessee at No. 6 Alabama
- Desmond: Alabama
- Saban: Alabama
- McAfee: Alabama
- Jelly Roll: Tennessee
- Herbstreit: Alabama
No. 5 Ole Miss at No. 9 Georgia
- Desmond: Georgia
- Saban: Georgia
- McAfee: Georgia
- Jelly Roll: Georgia
- Herbstreit: No pick (he’s calling the game)
Will Jelly Roll and the GameDay crew be proven right with these picks? We’ll find out over the course of an incredible Week 8 Saturday across the SEC!
