As we explored earlier this week, national media members are almost unanimously expecting the Nebraska Cornhuskers to defeat the Colorado Buffaloes on Saturday evening (5:30 p.m. MT on NBC) at Memorial Stadium. The ESPN “College GameDay” crew continued that trend during its Week 2 show in Ann Arbor with all but one analyst predicting the Huskers to defeat head coach Deion Sanders’ Buffs.
Including guest picker and decorated Olympian Michael Phelps, here’s a look at the “College GameDay” crew’s picks for Colorado-Nebraska:
