With the show traveling to different cities to be part of the biggest games that week on the college football schedule, there is always a new backdrop to the show. With this upcoming week heading to Eugene, Oregon, to see the seventh-ranked Oregon Ducks host the 15th-ranked USC Trojans, they have announced an intriguing guest picker for the game.
Marcus Mariota Will be ESPN College GameDay’s Guest Picker This Week
ESPN College GameDay took to social media to announce the former Oregon Duck and current Washington Commanders quarterback Marcus Mariota, will be this week’s guest picker for the Big Ten Conference matchup between top-15 opponents. Mariota was the 2014 Heisman Trophy winner for the Ducks and would be selected with the second pick in the 2015 NFL Draft by the Tennessee Titans.
This is going to be an intriguing guest picker as he is currently the starting quarterback for the Commanders, as Jayden Daniels continues to recover from a dislocated left elbow. However, the team is on its bye week and will spend Saturday morning in Eugene, Oregon, with the ESPN College GameDay crew.
The Oregon Ducks and the USC Trojans are both need a win and a loss by either the Indiana Hoosiers or the Ohio State Buckeyes if they want to have a chance for the Big Ten Championship Game. Both teams are looking for a win this week to keep their College Football Playoff dreams alive and compete for the national championship.
It will be intriguing to see how this game plays out and how Mariota looks as a guest picker.
