Lee Corso being Lee Corso

Is there a better tradition in sports than College Gameday pick'em with Corso and the crew? Maybe the Masters, or the Open Championship, or the Super Bowl, or the World Series, or the Stanley Cup Playoffs, but it's up there. Guy's like 80 years old and just burns around the stage with the energy of Herbstreit when he was mediocre with the Buckeyes. Corso hasn't coached in like 30 years but we still value his opinion more than any of the other clowns on Gameday and I'm totally ok with that. I think I can honestly say I only tune in for the last 5 minutes of Gameday, just to watch Corso and Herbstreit bicker like chicks over who's going to win. So many classic picks from Lee, let's see some of his greatest.







1. Creeping Into Senility at Houston

This one happened last year, love Herbstreit's reaction and the Houston coach was loving it. He issued the most somber, sincere apology ever afterwards, but it was just an old man doing what old men do, curse, piss, and drink, classic stuff. I bet he was hammered for this one, its 5 o'clock somewhere, Lee.






2. That Dog is Ugly

Might be my favorite Corso moment, just building up Georgia and slapping them right in the face with his slight about that ugly dog. Total power move getting after it on their home turf. Corso don't care, he's been pissing his sheets for a decade now, he's way past the point of caring.



3. Picking Oregon at USC


First off, Corso has his own mascot head on in the beginning. Secondly, Will Ferrell is involved so it's a classic in that sense. Lastly, he picks my Ducks and that's big points. That's when you know you've made it, you have your own mascot head and you get attacked with it by Will Ferrell. Corso for the win.
