Chip and Joanna Gaines joined Lee Corso with Baylor headgear on ‘GameDay’

The “Fixer Upper” couple made a big entrance on a tracker with Chip behind the wheel.

Lee Corso and ESPN’s College GameDay crew were joined by two guest pickers in Week 12 who are practically as synonymous with Waco, Texas as Baylor is.

Fixer Upper couple and Baylor alumni Chip and Joanna Gaines showed up to Saturday’s broadcast, ahead of No. 10 Oklahoma’s game against undefeated No. 13 Baylor, in style on a tractor to make their picks. Unsurprisingly, Chip was super excited to be behind the wheel of that thing.

The Sooners are 10.5-point favorites on the road, and while Corso made his famous headgear pick, he did one of his classic fake-outs, first going with Oklahoma in what he called “an easy pick.”

But he quickly changed his mind in favor of Baylor, and Chip and Joanna joined him with some Bears headgear of their own.

Here’s a look at Chip and Joanna’s grand entrance to GameDay as well:

Their fandom for Baylor is well documented on HGTV’s Fixer Upper.

In 2017, former Baylor quarterback and Heisman Trophy winner Robert Griffin III appeared in an episode about renovating the house of a Vietnam War veteran. Griffin’s Family of 3 foundation partnered with the Gaines couple to make the project happen, and Chip geeked out over simply being in the general vicinity of Griffin.

The Oklahoma-Baylor game kicks off at 7:30 p.m. ET on ABC.

Lee Corso teases Oklahoma, chooses Baylor on College Gameday

The College Gameday crew finished with a lopsided decision in front of a rowdy Waco crowd on Saturday morning.

The College Gameday crew finished with a lopsided decision in front of a rowdy Waco crowd on Saturday morning, as two picked Baylor to win tonight to Oklahoma’s one.

Lee Corso teased Oklahoma before swapping to Baylor’s Bear mascot head in front of a roaring crowd.

“Oklahoma is a 10-point favorite. Oklahoma is No. 2 in the nation in scoring offense. Oklahoma is 25-3 versus Baylor, this is an easy pick, Oklahoma!” Corso said before the late bait-and-switch. He handed his celebrity pickers each a Bear head before throwing one on himself.

Former Heisman winner Desmond Mason chose first, citing Oklahoma’s recent struggles, but picked the Sooners, saying that “tonight, the Sooners will finish.”

Kirk Herbstreit didn’t pick, as he is calling the game tonight.

Former Fixer Upper stars Chip and Joanna Gaines were the celebrity pickers of the week, and went with their alma mater, Baylor.

No 10 Oklahoma and No. 13 Baylor will kick off at 6:30 p.m.
