You’ll struggle to find a bigger legend than Lee Corso, what a guy
It pains me to see him struggling more and more each year. I absolutely love Lee.
GKG35 sad reality of getting old, I’m from Australia so I’ve only watched CFB for 5 years so I’ve only really known him as this crazy stumbling guy but I still love him.
@@num1huskerfan1 he’s getting old what do you expect? But he’s still a legend and I actually met him one time what a nice man
Bill Walton will never match him (bill’s a...man of many Woodstock say the least)
*words not Woodstock*
I wish god would let this man live forever
Justin King lol I know right
I hope that once Corso passes that they continue the legacy of the headgear pick
18:20 to 18:45 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
i was thinking the same thing!!!
@@makeaplaytv7034 I can come
Most underrated tradition in all of sports! God bless Lee Corso!
Now how the hell did you find me on here 😂 maybe I’m just excited for my college game day video coming tomorrow
Cole Adams it's not a SATURDAY MORNING without me waking up to watch this blessed event ( the helmet selection (aka: THAT THING IS UGLY )
Love how kirk takes care of corso you can tell he means a great deal to him
Oh definitely
Like his father
i think its because lee is getting older. he is 85 sadly
College game day is the best show ESPN has.
PERIOD.
This and NFL Primetime must be preserved for years
That's for sure
@lorenzo I watch college gameday football every Saturday morning
Still nothing beats him leading the crowd in "Sweet Home Alabama" and then putting on the LSU tiger head.
Daniel West nah, when he said “f**k it” and picked Houston over SMU.
a week later corso had to put on duct tape on his mouth for his headgear pick
Jake Mitchell that was his BLACK REACT MOMENT & if anyone is GUARANTEED TO HAVE 1: ITS HIM
He brought a 2 live gators
He did the same thing to Bama in 2023 against Texas
Corso and the Oregon Duck are my favorite duo in NCAA Football history
I love seeing how much college football changes through this! Seeing all the history and what was trending at the time and even how the show has changed is so cool! Love this!
Yeah, I agree.
I was just watching ur vid on college gameday also Woo Pig Sooie
o
I’ll say (Nebraska fan here)
"Ah F**K it" *grabs Cougar head* The reaction was classic I remember that live. I about died laughing . I love Lee Corso
Yeah that was a great one...Chris and Kirk totally lost it like "nice working with ya Lee"
smu fans love it too, especially when we got our revenge with him throwing the memphis head last year lol
Timestamp?
@@bigtimeaze-azeramos9645 17:52 The SMU vs Houston pick from 2011. Lee pick's up the SMU prop, then throw's it to pick up the Houston Cougar's head xD
I remember that live too! I was playing minecraft on the family computer and my dad was watching GameDay next to me in the same room. I wasn't really paying attention, but next thing I know, my dad is DYING laughing. He had it recorded, and he put it on replay over and over again! Also, the delay wasn't there, so we heard him say "f it!" In all its glory. Great times.
I can’t wait for College Gameday to start again on Saturday
I agree!
Ungar To The Max it did
Throwback to when Nebraska was relevant
Ty Hipnar Mike Riley ruined them. Pielini was doing great.
They still got dicked on by Virginia tech
0-6
bradythegoat our future is brighter than fucking Texas tech future lmao
Ian Fink I think not! We are 5-5 but are no doubt Top 25. Our biggest loss was to Ole Miss in week 1. Then we lost to Oklahoma by 1 possession and lost to Texas after a great comeback. We could be 8-2 right now. I think without the loss to Ole Miss or Iowa State, also a close game, we would be top 20.
1:48 "that is one of the hats of all time"
He literally started the meme over two decades early😳
My favorite part is simply how much fun Corso looks like he's having.
The clip with Carl Lewis at the very end. Lee drops the F bomb. LOL
clay espen 17:53
13:37 i love how the bulldog immediately frowned once Corso put on the elephant head.
Corso is truly a treat to watch
12:30 geez the difference in quality between 06 and 07 was insane
Pretty sure that's when every1 switched to HD
He embodies all that is great about college football. It will be a sad day when he steps down from the GameDay set. Thanks to Herbie for helping him these past few years.
Grew up watching Lee Corso, I know he had a stroke but he’s still a legend and love everything what he brought to CFB.
This man is a sports legend! As much as I would like to see the headgear tradition carry on, we all know that no one can replace Corso when he does it.
3:57 we thank you for watching sesame street AKA college gameday
He's TBD only man to confidently rock the vintage gobbler head
Loved this because you could tell it was never rehearsed or planned. Seeing them genuinely reacting to Lee's picks is hilarious.
17:52 - "Aw, (explicit) it! I'm picking Houston!"
My favorite Corso moment!
carl lewis has brought out the cougar in corso
Man I don't want Lee Corso to retire.
11:39 college gameday in Raleigh... that a shocker.
Chris Bratcher that's rare for the hoops state. NC State keeps getting better and better though. Doeren is building us up.
@@ilovemanunited6179 dorens youngest son was on my rec baseball team.
How about @09:35 game day from Bowling Green?
i lived not far from raleigh for 12 years
When Corso shot the Musket was one of the funniest ones. I think it was a Oklahoma game. Should of put that on here.
"I shot a bird!"
I was thinking the same thing. Matter of fact, I'm going to watch that right now. Herbstreit's reaction is priceless.
@@finisher3x Yeah dude Herbstreit lost it. He took cover and couldn't stop laughing.
He also did that at a Texas Tech game vs Texas
I remember Bob Knight was the guest picker and even HE looked terrified seeing Corso duel-wielding sawed-off shotguns 😆
Does anybody else realize that Lee Corso cussed on college game day while they were at Texas
*As it should be* 🤠( Longhorns/ Cougers fan btw)
He literally said “F*** it” in one of the clips shown (17:53)😂
2:51 The police officers are just smirking in the background lol
Such a legend. Loved watching him every Saturday for the picks.
College football will never be the same without Lee Corso.
As well as the video game made by EA Sports.
This video is good enough to make a grown man cry. An absolute legend!
13:42 "What the hell is this?" Never fails to put me in tears from laughter.
Ur username lol
Hook em horns. More like Saw em off aggies!
When I think of college football this is What pops up in my mind
I love the cop that steps forward after Corso puts on the Alabama helmet.
Roll Tide Roll!!
One of the greatest college football traditions I love waking up sat morning and watching who he's gonna pick
He picked against Oklahoma every single game the year they won the national title lol
This brings back serious nostalgia
The atmosphere of college football is incredible. Absolutely nothing like it
Anything 2010-2013 was fire
Lee Corso has got to enjoy living a life that they rest of us couldn’t even fathom in our wildest dreams.
17:52 Corso says “F*** it”, and both Rece and Kirk are in hysterics. Lee is the 🐐
Straight goat
It was Chris Fowler still on Gameday
Seeing this after he dealing with some medical issues, hope he gets better and stays on game day for many more years!!
Coming back to this comment he is somehow still doing gameday, I love what he has done but it’s prolly his time to be done 🫡
Threw away the BYU cougar headgear and put on the Horned Frog. Mormons were not happy that day.
*REPLIES TO A 2 YEAR OLD COMMENT*
So true
I would love to see the final scores of these games in the corner
College GameDay has always made waking up early on Saturdays worth it! I love this show!
Been watching Lee Corso do this forever. I hope he doesn't have plans to retire. I would truly miss it.
Watching this as I'm currently watching College Gameday patiently waiting for Lee's pick.
It's not Saturday morning without College GameDay and Lee Corso without that headgear
You can tell Corso enjoys this every year. Keeps him young. This man is a true legend.
7:00 crazy how long I been watching this show cuz Kirk's kids are grown now lol
Lee Corso could hype your whole stadium singlehandedly. Literally the best sports broadcast tradition and it can't be replicated.
Michigan Penn State 2017 Gameday was probably the best Lee Corso headgear pick ever...But he's the best.
17:51 was the best one by far
zRiddick their reactions is what made it better 😂
Here’s to 30 years of Lee Corso’s headgear picks
By god lee is a treasure
This truly brings back good memoires i haven't watched gameday last few years but this makes me want to this weekend
What a great tradition, it made GameDay so much more better, it's going to be a sad loss to all of college football when he retires it just won't be the same without him
I will miss it when he stops doing the headgear picks, a legendary part of college football for me
Crazyyy how long they’ve been doing this for
Lee corso a legand
Whenever Lee Corso puts on the TCU Super frog head he looks like a Pokémon
"THAT DOG IS UGLY!" I remember seeing that Live and loved it.
Lee corso is a national treasure.
I can watch this video all day and never get annoyed from it. This has to be my favorite video of all time
Lee Corso, where have the years gone?
The best part of all these is kirk laughing
Gameday at Houston will forever be iconic with Corso dropping the F-bomb on live TV
This video makes me so happy haha, like this is what college football is all about, school spirit and traditions. I’m gonna be so sad when Corso retires
Once Corso dies, retires, or passes the torch, GameDay will never be the same.
2:27 Nebraska would go on and blow K-STATE out 44-0
He truly is a national treasure
Every Saturday I always can't wait to see what head gear corso puts on
It's sad that he never put a Kansas headgear on
Lee Corso is a college football treasure!
Loved corso since I was 4 💪🏾
🐐. Just the absolute best
I’ve been waiting for this for so long.
Corso and Vitale Personality in College Sports Is EVERYTHING
The VT jacket liner was awesome and the old school Hokie Bird was just classic. Love the man.
also I love the bond with corso and herbstreit.
I don't think I stopped smiling for the entire video
He always picks my Ducks!
Forrest Hassell He never picks my Irish 😭
Connor and Mallory Gonzalez because Notre Dame is over rated
He only picked my Hurricanes a couple of times
@@southyfannatsuki he did against Miami and look how that turned out 😂
Max Mayeux cough cough
2:58 Lee Corso picks FSU over Tennessee in the National Championship. He was wrong and my Tennessee Volunteers won their 6 national Championship
love these 2 together .....
THIS IS A GIFT FOR LEE CORSO FOR A HONOR OF HIM
I've got to where I like gameday more than the games themselves
I hope to be like Lee corso when I get old he’s always young at heart
Far from a Arkansas fan but there’s something so endearing about that Razorback head thing. Like it tries to be tough looking but ends up being a little cute in a rugged kinda way.
11:22 this is my favorite part of Lee Corso I wonder if the college Gameday group is going to be at chapel hill in Saturday
The one in Morgantown for LSU vs West Virginia was a classic.
Corso saying fuck it was the best thing ever. The look on Kirk Herstriet face was priceless
I’m a Clemson fan and we think that if corso picks us it’s a jinx
Penalty Kickz it’s the same with Georgia lol
Same with Alabama 😓
And most recently, Oregon
Always chuckle at the productions that are the Lee Courso headgear picks
I LOVE THIS DUDE
i love this man
One of the most underrated traditions of college football
“That is, one of the hats of all time I think.”
If you say Roll Tide in Death Valley,
‘Roll Tide’ would be the last words you’d hear
This was soo wholesome
Im so happy to see Lee show love to the ducks! I think we're one of his favorite mascots 😊
I don’t know when college game day started, but for every Saturday morning of my childhood and into my adult life I spent my morning waiting to see Mr. Corso’s pick! It will be a truly sad day when this legend finally steps away, but it will be very well deserved
Lee Corso is the man, the myth, the legend :)
13:04
27 years of tradition in the making
Heroes get remembered but legends never die.
