College GameDay makes embarrassing mistake on Auburn’s head coach

College GameDay made an amusing mistake during Saturday’s Week 0 broadcast previewing the season. When discussing Auburn coach Bryan Harsin, ESPN’s graphic placed AU’s head coach at Nebraska.
We all make mistakes. This goof is good for a chuckle.
It’s understandable how the mistake was made. Nebraska head coach Scott Frost is also considered to be on a hot seat entering Year 5 of his tenure in Lincoln.
The Cornhuskers are just 15-29 in 4 seasons under Frost. Last year, Frost’s squad went 3-9 overall and 1-8 in conference play. All 9 losses were by 9 points or fewer.
Harsin dealt with job uncertainty this offseason, despite leading Auburn to 6 regular-season wins and a bowl game in 2021. Auburn administration launched an inquiry in February, and Harsin ultimately kept his job. Now, however, he’ll be dealing with a new athletic director who may be looking to make their own hire for the position.
