ESPN College GameDay: Picks for Week 13, Indiana at Ohio State
ESPN was back in Columbus, Ohio for College GameDay in Week 13. The game of the day featured the undefeated Indiana Hoosiers taking on the Ohio State Buckeyes, and a raucous crowd brought the energy.
Joining the crew as this week’s Celebrity Guest Picker was former Ohio State quarterback Justin Fields. The Pittsburgh Steelers played on Thursday Night Football as part of Week 12 for the NFL, so Fields had an open weekend, and the former Buckeyes signal-caller chose to spend it in Columbus.
Aside from the colossal Big Ten clash, there are a ton of interesting games on the slate in Week 13, and the College GameDay crew is locking in their predictions. Check them out in full below, and see if you agree with their picks.
ESPN College GameDay Picks for Week 13:
Indiana at Ohio State: The biggest game in Indiana history, according to Rece Davis. Howard started things off with a pick of the Hoosiers, with McAfee following it up by going against the home team, which has become a rare occasion. Saban, Herbstreit and Fields made the case for the Buckeyes, and then it was time for Corso’s pick.
Would he go with his first love in Ohio State and Brutus, or his beloved Hoosiers? The latter was the pick, as he grabbed the Indiana helmet to make his pick.
Colorado at Kansas: A tough showdown for Coach Prime, Shedeur Sanders and the Buffaloes, and Corso and Herbstreit both believe they’ll fall to the Jayhawks.
BYU at Arizona State: A huge Big 12 clash. The whole crew believes the Sun Devils defeat the Cougars in Week 13.
Army at Notre Dame: Can the Black Knights pull a monstrous upset inside Yankee Stadium? Everyone is on the Fighting Irish.
SMU at Virginia: The whole crew is on the Mustangs to keep up their impressive play under Rhett Lashlee.
Washington State at Oregon State: The PAC-2 showdown — only McAfee believes in the Beavers.
USC at UCLA: Howard and McAfee believe in the home Bruins and Ethan Garbers, while the rest of the crew is on the Trojans.
