Nick Saban joined Corso in picking the Buckeyes while Desmond Howard and Pat McAfee backed the Ducks. Kirk Herbstreit abstained from a selection because he will be the color commentator for the College Football Playoff quarterfinal matchup in Pasadena.
College GameDay has attended Ohio State gmaes five times this season, the most of any school. Corso has now picked the Buckeyes on four of five occasions, including both of the team's matchups with Oregon, Penn State and Tennessee. The one time Corso did not pick the Buckeyes, he backed Indiana to beat Ohio State on account of the 10 seasons he coached the Hoosiers' football program from 1973-82.
The Buckeyes are 29-15 all-time when Corso picks them. Ohio State will look to secure win No. 30 when it faces Oregon at 5 p.m. EST in the Rose Bowl.
