I could see ESPN inviting Robin Roberts to be guest picker...Mississippi ties, her nephew (who is named after her father) played at State, and October is Breast Cancer Awareness Month (she is a survivor of breast cancer).

I'd be cool with that pick, she's always been sort of a State fan anyway.

Dang. That's a smart choice. I'd be ok with it. Don't love it but

It is breast cancer awareness time and she has fought her rear end off and survived. When do they normally make that selection public anyway

I guess the players will be rocking the pink accent gear. Meh.

edited to add: love the cause. Don't like the look.

And ABC and ESPN is part of the same company....

She also is a former college athlete that gives her some credibility for such duty. I think she would also have broader recognition than some 'pop culture' chick that most folks over 35 don't know from adam's housecat.

She would be an EXCELLENT choice.

I agree with that....

One game for that stuff is good. A whole month is too much. I would prefer a patch or armband or something uniform over the shoes, wrist bands, socks etc.
