- ESPN College GameDay picks FSU vs Memphis. Kirk Herbstreit did the unthinkable
Kirk Herbstreit did the unthinkable in making his picks on ESPN's College GameDay: He apologized to Florida State football fans.
"I can't believe all the disrespect for Florida State," the college football analyst and frequent FSU antagonist said after many of his fellow pickers backed Memphis . "I apologize," he said before giving the Tomahawk Chop and picking the Seminoles to snap their 0-2 start.
FSU alum Lee Corso said, "If I didn't go to Florida State , I wouldn't pick 'em."

Those two were in the minority of College GameDay's pregame prediction crew. Guest picker Dawn Staley, head coach of the national champion South Carolina women's basketball team, said "I saw the Boston College game" before picking Memphis .
Former Alabama coach Nick Saban referenced FSU coming off a bye week, but warned "sometimes that's good, sometimes that's bad." Then again, he said his granddaughter gave him some new advice for picking games: "Whatever team you think is gonna win, pick the other guy." So maybe he actually back the Seminoles ?
Florida State vs Memphis kicks off at noon on ESPN.
