ESPN’s lineup of guest pickers for College GameDay this season has been a mixed bag. Most seem to be happy with the latest pick, though.
ESPN’s College GameDay is heading to Columbus on Saturday. The crew will be previewing the marquee Big Ten battle between the No. 4 Ohio State Buckeyes and No. 7 Michigan State Spartans.
The iconic college football pregame show is bringing in a well-known celebrity – and die-hard Ohio State fan – to be Saturday’s guest picker.
College GameDay announced on Friday that Tyler Joseph – the lead singer of Twenty One Pilots – will be the guest picker. He’ll be joined by his bandmate, Josh Dun.

As he said in the video, Tyler Joseph attended the Ohio State University for two years before dropping out. It proved to be the right decision as he’s since gone on to become a successful singer.
It looks like Ohio State fans are pretty happy with College GameDay‘s selection for guest picker.
“YESSSSSSSSS!! Two of my favorites (music/twenty one pilots & sports/college football) coming together. I am so pumped for this,” a fan said.
“Genuinely so excited for this. no one knows how much I love ohio state,” another fan said.
