Pat McAfee makes splashy final pick on College GameDay with high-dive stunt
Pat McAfee delivered his Florida vs. Miami pick in memorable fashion to close out College GameDay on Saturday.
McAfee chose to leave the GameDay set in order give out his pick for Saturday night’s headlining game. He took the trek to a pool nearby where College GameDay was staged, climbed up the ladder, stripped to a speedo and then picked the Canes to come out on top on Saturday night against the Gators.
“Ladies and gentlemen, if you come to this beautiful campus, you will notice quickly that the students here love this university, they love this atmosphere,” McAfee said before taking the plunge off the high-dive. “I think The U is back.”
Here’s a clip from the scene:
McAfee has certainly been known for his dramatic stunts on College GameDay, though this might be his biggest yet.
Miami is favored by a touchdown against the 1-2 Gators on Saturday night at home, so it’s not too much of a surprise that the entire College GameDay panel picked Mario Cristobal’s team to come out on top in this matchup.
Kickoff from Hard Rock Stadium is set for 7:30 p.m. ET on Saturday night.
