Lee Corso is going with Brutus and the Buckeyes.
It certainly didn't take long for Lee Corso to put on the Brutus mascot head this season, which has almost become a yearly tradition at this point. Ahead of the top-five showdown between Ohio State and Notre Dame in Columbus Saturday night, the legendary college football personality picked the Buckeyes to beat the Fighting Irish in the season opener, the first top-five matchup to open the season in Ohio State's storied history.

Corso isn't the only one who chose the Buckeyes to start the season with a win tonight, as oddsmakers have Ohio State listed as a 16.5-point favorite over Notre Dame.
Saturday's pick is the 39th time the legendary member of College Gameday has picked Ohio State with his headgear selection – by far Corso's most frequent choice. Now, will the Buckeyes prove him and the rest of the College Gameday crew correct? We'll have to wait and see.
Kickoff in the Shoe is set for 7:30 p.m. tonight.
