College GameDay was live from Pittsburgh on Saturday morning ahead of a key matchup between the No. 9 Notre Dame Fighting Irish and the No. 22 Pitt Panthers.
Both of those teams still have Playoff hopes alive, although another loss for either will likely end those dreams. Talk about pressure!
The GameDay crew of Rece Davis, Stanford Steve, Desmond Howard, Nick Saban, Pat McAfee and Kirk Herbstreit was joined by former Pitt star and legendary Rams defensive lineman Aaron Donald to pick some winners for the major Week 12 matchups, including a few in the SEC.
The headline games in the SEC feature Oklahoma visiting Alabama and the Texas Longhorns heading to Athens to face the Georgia Bulldogs.
Stanford Steve picked Tennessee Tech (+22.5) at Kentucky as his superdog pick. None of the other guys had superdog picks involving SEC teams.
Here’s a look at who everyone thinks will win key Week 12 SEC battles:
No. 11 Oklahoma at No. 4 Alabama
- Desmond: Alabama
- Saban: Alabama
- McAfee: Oklahoma
- Donald: Alabama
- Herbstreit: Oklahoma
No. 10 Texas at No. 5 Georgia
- Desmond: Georgia
- Saban: Georgia
- McAfee: Georgia
- Donald: Georgia
- Herbstreit: No pick (he’s calling the game)
Will the crew be proven right? Where will Donald rank among all the guest pickers this season? We’ll find out as we embark on an exciting Week 12 slate of college football!
