X claps back at Lee Corso hater with hilarious community note: 'Not so fast, my friend'

As obviously as he went with his first love for his final headgear, Lee Corso went with Florida State to win over No. 8 Alabama among his final picks as part of ‘College GameDay’. While some questioned it, Corso got one of his last selections right by going with the Seminoles, with FSU winning 31-17 over ‘Bama.

On social media, some fans took shots at Corso for picking the Seminoles over the Tide. However, X/Twitter responded to one of those with a community note in honor of the Sunshine Scooter.

Ending his professional career with probably the worst take of his career https://t.co/I4l8ndEdt9

“Not so fast, my friend,” the community note read in response to a tweet calling the pick as the worst take of Corso’s career.

With that, @HuskerMike28 has taken what’s now his own bad take in stride on social. He has since laughed at himself, especially now after this response from the website.

“Who is this clown with this take?” he posted later on.

“I will not delete it, I’m cooked,” he also posted. “Lee Corso goes out swinging with his Alma mater!”

In his final episode, Corso didn’t just get this pick right. He went a perfect six-for-six in his selections for this weekend’s biggest games by choosing No. 24 Tennessee over Syracuse, Florida State over No. 8 Alabama, No. 13 South Carolina over Virginia Tech, No. 10 Miami over Notre Dame, No. 9 LSU over No. 4 Clemson, and, for his final headgear pick, No. 3 Ohio State over No. 1 Texas. Because, of course he got them all correct in his sendoff, right?

Not only that, all of the teams associated with Corso from his career as a player and coach also gifted him by all winning in week one. Florida State, Indiana, Louisville, Maryland, Navy, and Northern Illinois won during week one.

During his final episode of ‘College GameDay’, Corso helped to set another record as well. Per an announcement by ESPN, 3.5 million people was the average viewership, with an apparent peak of 5.1 million viewers towards the end of the show per Nielsen, to make it the most-watched episode ever of ‘College GameDay’, which he had been a part of since it began in 1987.

The retirement episode couldn’t have gone any better for Lee Corso. And, from now on, whenever you think a certain upset isn’t possible on a game day in college football, just think…

Not So Fast, My Friend
