The celebrity guest picker for ESPN's "College GameDay" on Saturday morning in Tuscaloosa has been revealed.
Announced on Thursday's episode of "The Pat McAfee Show," the celebrity guest picker this Saturday morning will be none other than former Alabama Crimson Tide quarterback Bryce Young.
In addition to Young being revealed as the guest picker, it was also announced that GameDay will be moving indoors Saturday morning due to the forecast from Hurricane Isaias. GameDay will now broadcast live from inside Coleman Coliseum from 9-12 a.m. ET on ESPN ahead of the Georgia game.
Young spent three seasons at Alabama from 2020-22 under former head coach Nick Saban, the latter two of which he started for the Crimson Tide at quarterback. During his three seasons at Alabama,
Young completed 65.8% of his passes for 8,356 yards and an 80:12 TD:INT ratio, while also rushing for seven touchdowns and receiving a number of honors headlined by the 2021 Heisman Trophy.
Selected with the No. 1 overall pick in the 2023 NFL draft, Young is currently in his fourth season as the Carolina Panthers' starting quarterback. Across four games this season, Young is currently leading the NFL with 1,268 passing yards.
Alabama-Georgia is set to kickoff Saturday night in Tuscaloosa. The game will kickoff at 7:30 p.m. ET on ABC.
Due to expected inclement weather, College GameDay will originate from inside the Coleman Coliseum on Alabama’s campus on Saturday morning.
