The best part of every College GameDay is always the last segment, when the crew makes its “Saturday Selections.” The experts make their picks and Lee Corso dons the headgear at the end of the show, a fan favorite tradition.

On Saturday, Kirk Herbstreit, Desmond Howard, Lee Corso and special guest picker Bo Jackson made their Week 1 picks from Arlington. College GameDay was in the Lone Star State ahead of a top 25 matchup between No. 16 Auburn and No. 11 Oregon.

A few B1G games were included in the Saturday Selections, but with only a few marquee matchups, there weren’t many interesting picks for the show to choose from. Here’s a look at who the crew picked in the Week 1 B1G games, though:

FAU vs. #5 Ohio State

Desmond: Ohio State

Kirk: Ohio State

Lee: Ohio State

Bo: Ohio State

Northwestern vs. #25 Stanford

Desmond: Stanford

Kirk: Northwestern

Lee: Stanford

Bo: Stanford
