College football legend announced as ESPN's GameDay guest picker

And rightfully so!

ESPN's College Football GameDay will take place Saturday morning from Tuscaloosa, Alabama ahead of the No. 1 Crimson Tide's tilt with the No. 6 Texas A&M Aggies.

As part of the shenanigans toward the end of the weekly morning show, ESPN's Kirk Herbstreit announced Friday that the guest picker would be none other than Verne Lundquist.

Lundquist is on his retirement tour, finishing his last year calling college football for CBS.

Alabama and Texas A&M face off at 3:30 p.m. ET on CBS.
