ESPN’s ‘College GameDay’ will be in Columbus for Notre Dame-Ohio State with this performer

Interesting choice

Although Week 0 started the college football season, there were no games of note. Week 1 will be different. Three Top 25 matchups are highlighted by Notre Dame visiting Columbus to take on Ohio State.

As the only Top 5 matchup of the weekend, it was an easy selection for ESPN’s “College GameDay.” The fantastic crew of Rece Davis, Kirk Herbstreit, Desmond Howard, David Pollack and new addition Jess Sims as they get fans ready for the action each Saturday morning.

The crew also brings in a celebrity guest picker and today GameDay announced that person, rapper Jack Harlow.

What is odd about this selection as that normally the guest picker has some connection to the home team, but Harlow doesn’t. He’s not a fan of either team and grew up in Kentucky.

Many of us will not  be on the edge of our seats while Harlow makes his picks of the games; we’ll be much more interested in what happens in Ohio Stadium later that evening.
