Joining the crew as Saturday's Celebrity Guest Picker was none other than former Texas Golfer and current PGA Tour superstar Scottie Scheffler. Over the course of his professional career, Scheffler has won 13 events on the PGA Tour, including several majors, and the Masters twice, including this year's edition.

Outside of Austin, there are plenty of intriguing matchups throughout the college football landscape, such as Alabama at Tennessee, Miami at Louisville And Michigan at Illinois. Check out the full selection from this week's edition of College game day below.

ESPN College GameDay Picks for Week 8:

Georgia in Texas: No choice for Herbstreit as he is on duty in Austin, but the rest of the crew had to announce their choice to the world. Howard picked the Longhorns wearing a cowboy hat while Saban legitimately flipped a coin and Texas ended up being the beneficiary. Will McAfee pick against the home team? No chance, although Scheffler always wanted to join the Longhorns.

As for Corso, he stands by his National Championship prediction for the Longhorns as he grabbed the Hook 'Em Head for the clean sweep over Texas College game day Crew.

Alabama in Tennessee: The third Saturday in October is always an entertaining sight. The crew is split: Saban, Scheffler and Corso are on the Crimson Tide, while Howard, McAfee and Herbstreit are with the Volunteers.

UCF at Iowa State: In Week 8, everyone is on the Cyclones.

Kansas State at West Virginia: McAfee is still making the case for his Mountaineers to be the potential Big 12 champions, but he was only able to convince Saban to join him in picking West Virginia.

Colorado in Arizona: Herbstreit chose the Wildcats, but the rest of the team chose Coach Prime and the Buffaloes.

Nebraska near Indiana: Can the Hoosiers stay undefeated? Saban is the only part of the team that pulls through against Indiana and gets the win.

Michigan in Illinois: A win over the Wolverines would be huge for the Fighting Illini. Only Howard and McAfee believe Michigan can beat Illinois in Week 8.

Miami and Louisville: Herbstreit picked the Cardinals, but everyone else is going with the Hurricanes.

Notre Dame at Georgia Tech: Everyone believes in the Fighting Irish.

LSU at Arkansas: The team is split – Howard, Corso and Herbstreit on the Tigers, Saban, McAfee and Scheffler on the Razorbacks.

Oklahoma in South Carolina: Herbstreit was the only dissenter brave enough to save the graph and pick the Sooners in Austin.
