ESPN College GameDay: Picks for Saturday's Bowl Games, Georgia vs Florida State

An awesome long weekend of college football bowl games is taking place over the next couple of days, and ESPN College GameDay is ready for it.

On Saturday, there’s a myriad of fascinating clashes. The Ole Miss Rebels (10-2) will square off with the Penn State Nittany Lions (10-2) in the Chick-fil-A Peach Bowl, followed by the Georgia Bulldogs (12-1) facing the Florida State Seminoles (13-0) in the Capital One Orange Bowl.

Elsewhere, the Auburn Tigers (6-6) are clashing with the Maryland Terrapins (7-5) in the TransPerfect Music City Bowl, and the Toledo Rockets (11-2) will play the Wyoming Cowboys (8-4) in the Barstool Sports Arizona Bowl.

That’s a doozy of a slate for Saturday alone. The NFL is king on Sunday, but Monday bring an amazing schedule, and Kirk Herbstreit, Desmond Howard, Pat McAfee, Lee Corso and Rece Davis tried to make sense of it all.

There’s a ton of hype for Saturday’s showdowns, and the College GameDay crew has locked in their picks. Here’s who they’re riding with on Saturday.

CGD Predictions for Saturday’s Bowl Games:

The whole College GameDay crew believes the Bulldogs end the Seminoles’ undefeated season, handing them their first loss of 2023.

Chick-fil-A Peach Bowl — Ole Miss Rebels vs. Penn State Nittany Lions: Will Lane Kiffin or James Franklin get the win on Saturday? Only Herbstreit is a believer in the latter, as the rest of the crew are on the Rebels.

TransPerfect Music City Bowl — Auburn Tigers vs. Maryland Terrapins: Taulia Tagovailoa won’t be on the field for the Terrapins, so the entire crew is riding with the Tigers.
