Lee Corso has finally picked against Ohio State in the 2024 college football season.
Although Corso previously picked the Buckeyes to beat Oregon and Penn State on ESPN College GameDay's earlier shows coinciding with OSU's schedule this season, the former Indiana coach could not pass up picking the Hoosiers on Saturday.

This would have served as Corso's 44th time donning the Brutus Buckeye headgear on GameDay had he opted to pick Ohio State. His selection coincided with Desmond Howard and Pat McAfee also selecting Indiana to pull off the upset in Columbus.
Nick Saban and Kirk Herbstreit sided with OSU, with the latter invoking that this game gave him similar vibes to the Buckeyes' 56-7 blowout win over Michigan State in 2021 when the Spartans traveled to Columbus as a top-10 team. Herbstreit credited guest-picker Justin Fields for that result from across the desk, and Fields followed up by declaring that the Buckeyes would win by 50 points today.
Across networks, FOX's Big Noon Kickoff crew unanimously picked Ohio State to win.
