College GameDay will be in Columbus on Saturday morning for the Ohio State vs. Notre Dame game. Who’s the celebrity guest picker?
If you’re a fan of Ohio State and were looking for an exciting guest picker for College GameDay on Saturday morning who is connected to the university, you get half of that.
Columbus will be rocking all day on Saturday ahead of the 7:30 p.m. ET kickoff between Ohio State and Notre Dame and it’ll get started early as an exciting celebrity guest picker will perform live on College GameDay.

Harlow is a rapper from Louisville who is actually a fan of the Cardinals so he has no connection to Ohio State which has been a theme with ESPN’s College GameDay for a while now. The show has veered away from getting nothing but celebrities who are connected to the schools that it’s visiting and rather just land big names.
To be fair, Harlow is from Louisville which is at least in the same part of the country, but he’s not exactly a Buckeye. He’s a Louisville fan who will probably try to appease Ohio State fans.
No guest picker in the history of College GameDay has picked against the home team and that’s not going to change this time out and at least Buckeye fans get a cool concern out of this. Harlow is one of the most popular names in the music industry and he attracts plenty of attention.
A lot of fans wanted LeBron James or literally one else, but Harlow will have to do.
