WWE wrestler Sheamus trolled GameDay crew after making the only correct pick for Florida State-Georgia Tech

College football is so back, and it kicked off the season with a fun Georgia Tech upset over No. 10 Florida State in Dublin on Saturday. The Yellow Jackets won, 24-21, off a last-second 44-yard field goal to open the 2024-25 college football season with a banger.

Fans who watched ESPN’s College GameDay broadcast Saturday from Dublin might recall the whole crew — though Lee Corso was absent and will be on for Week 1 — picked Florida State to win. Everyone went with FSU except guest picker and WWE star Sheamus. (Multiple FTW picks were also against Georgia Tech.)

After the Georgia Tech upset, Sheamus jumped on Twitter to troll the GameDay crew and tease them about being experts when he made the only correct pick for the marquee game of Week 0. Even Nick Saban picked Florida State over Georgia Tech.

College football fans also were quick with jokes about Florida State’s lawsuit against the ACC after the loss.
