College GameDay is in at Rocky Top for Week 7’s battle between of unbeaten teams with Tennessee and Alabama facing off. The crew picked some games as usual.
The celebrity guest picker was none other than Tennessee alum and NFL great QB Peyton Manning. Manning attended UT from 1994-1997 and finished second in Heisman Trophy voting in 1997. He lost the award to Michigan DB Charles Woodson.
There are plenty of great matchups in B1G country once again. One of the best games will be Penn State-Michigan. The Nittany Lions beat the Wolverines the last time that this game was at the “Big House”.
Minnesota-Illinois will also be taking place on the B1G West side of the conference. Fans also shouldn’t sleep on Nebraska-Purdue either as Mickey Joseph has the Huskers starting to believe again.
Lee Corso returned to GameDay after missing the last two weeks, and was welcomed with open arms.
Either Penn State or Michigan will exit Week 7 with one loss. Here’s how the crew picked the games they liked from the B1G:
