Miss Terry to join College GameDay as guest picker for Alabama-Georgia
ESPN’s flagship college football program, College GameDay, is set to broadcast live from Tuscaloosa tomorrow morning as a lead up to tomorrow night’s marquee matchup between No. 4 Alabama and No. 2 Georgia. On Friday afternoon, the program announced that Miss Terry, wife of legendary former Alabama coach Nick Saban, will be the guest picker during the show.
“I’m excited to be the guest picker,” Terry said in a video released by College GameDay on social media. “So we need all Crimson Tide fans to come to Denny Chimes Saturday morning. I’ve already been working on my picks and I think I’m going to beat Nick. I’ll see you there. Roll Tide.”
College GameDay brings a guest picker, typically with ties to the host university, at the end of each show to participate in the weekly picking of games. Other Alabama pickers in the past have been names such as former quarterback Joe Namath, or Alabama alum and PGA Tour golfer Justin Thomas.
Since retiring from coaching football, Nick Saban became an analyst on the College GameDay set, and has appeared every week this season on the entirety of the show. Now, he’ll get to pick games alongside his wife, as they compete to see who will pick more games correctly.
