College GameDay crew picks B1G Championship Game

Championship weekend is finally here!

After an action-packed regular season, it is time to determine the conference champions! In the B1G, Northwestern and Pat Fitzgerald will take on Ohio State and Urban Meyer.

The Buckeyes enter as big favorites following a thumping of then-No. 4 Michigan in the season finale. However, the underdog role is one that suits the Wildcats just fine under Fitzgerald.

Here is how the crew of ESPN’s College GameDay picked the B1G Championship Game:

Lee Corso: Ohio State

Kirk Herbstreit: Ohio State

Desmond Howard: Ohio State

Quavo (guest picker): Ohio State

Unsurprisingly, the crew was unanimous in picking the Buckeyes. Northwestern will try and shock everyone, but there’s no denying Ohio State is the clear favorite.

Here is how the crew picked the rest of the Power 5 conference championships being played Saturday:

Lee Corso: Oklahoma (over Texas), Clemson (over Pittsburgh), Alabama (over Georgia)

Kirk Herbstreit: (No pick on Pitt-Clemson, he is calling the game), Oklahoma, Alabama

Desmond Howard: Clemson, Oklahoma, Alabama

Quavo (guest picker): Clemson, Oklahoma, Georgia
