That included Florida State, which upset Alabama. Corso <a href=\"https:\/\/awfulannouncing.com\/espn\/lee-corso-florida-state-upset-alabama-pick.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener nofollow\">was the only person<\/a> on the College GameDay desk to pick the Seminoles to beat the Crimson Tide, and as it turned out, the good picks didn\u2019t stop there for Corso. In total, Corso picked six games. He entered Sunday\u2019s matchup between No. 6 Notre Dame and No. 10 Miami a perfect 5-for-5. But on Sunday night, the <a href=\"https:\/\/x.com\/awfulannouncing\/status\/1962354610385146351\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener nofollow\">Hurricanes knocked off<\/a> the Fighting Irish 27-24, giving Corso a perfect set of final picks.<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\">\n<p dir=\"ltr\" lang=\"en\">Corso didn\u2019t miss \ud83d\udc10 <a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/vSiAGXvTI8\" rel=\"nofollow\">pic.twitter.com\/vSiAGXvTI8<\/a><\/p>\n<p>\u2014 College GameDay (@CollegeGameDay) <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/CollegeGameDay\/status\/1962352755101638901?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">September 1, 2025<\/a><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>And this was not just a matter of Corso making chalk picks.<\/p>\n<p>Florida State, which was a 13.5-point underdog against Alabama, was Corso\u2019s most notable upset pick. But LSU (+5.5) and Miami (+2.5) were both underdogs against Clemson and Notre Dame, respectively. LSU was a road underdog.<\/p>\n<p>Additionally, the three favored teams selected by Corso not only won but covered the spread. Tennessee (-13.5) beat Syracuse 45-26, Ohio State (-1.5) beat Texas 14-7 and South Carolina (-7.5) beat Virginia Tech 24-11.<\/p>\n<p>To be clear, <a href=\"https:\/\/awfulannouncing.com\/espn\/lee-corso-legendary-college-gameday-mascot-era.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener nofollow\">the tributes Corso received<\/a> would have been no less deserving if he had gone 0-6 on his picks. Still, going a perfect 6-0 with three underdogs winning and three favorites covering was a perfect sendoff to a college football legend.<\/p>\n<p>\t<script async src=\"https:\/\/platform.twitter.com\/widgets.js\" charset=\"utf-8\"><\/script><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"In every way possible, Lee Corso went out on top.
