Pat McAfee delivers dramatic final pick for Miami-Texas A&M game on College GameDay
ESPN’s College GameDay set up shop in College Station, Texas, on Saturday morning for the first-round matchup between Texas A&M and Miami.
To close out the show, Pat McAfee fired up the crowd with his pick for this highly-anticipated contest. After initially hyping up Miami, McAfee switched gears and picked the Aggies to come out on top.
“[Miami] ain’t worried about nothing,” McAfee said. “And I think that’s a mistake. 110,000 people ready to lose their mind.
“Thank you for the hospitality. We can not wait for the rest of the world to get a chance to see you all put on a show as the greatest fan base in the entire world. Enjoy this, we appreciate you, college football is the greatest and you’re about to see why.”
