As they were leaving, I saw Lee Corso come over (very slowly and carefully) and interact with fans including pics, he was very gracious. Also, what's the story with the students holding baby dolls?
It’s something on Twitter. They started it during basketball, Carlos is the baby name. One of those random student things.

I for one am glad GameDay and the last 3 weeks are behind us. I can only imagine how gassed the team and coaches are. I felt like I played all 3 games it has been so mentally exhausting for everyone involved.
Winning like they did yesterday will only help their resolve and bring their focus back to the team in front of them. I will guarantee they will be overly prepared for JMU. I am affraid they will be a mire challenging opponent than Troy.

I don't know if anyone got upset but it made me chuckle a little. Speaking of Furman, someone had told me recently that they expect Furman to go non-scholarship eventually. I wonder if any truth to that? That would be a big fall for a team who won I-AA national titles to go that route.

Watched the GameDay from start to finish... of course there was a good reason to do so. I have no idea how we compare to previous GameDay's... especially when they have gone to small schools like us in the past.

It would've been great to have had the chancellor there to present the tuition "poster" prizes but it was a busy day for her.

Corso definitely had troubled during all the segments he appeared in. However, I thought he did great during the GameDay picks. His wit was definitely on display once again as he played off of Luke's picks. If only he would've (or could've) pronounced YOSEF correctly...

A great day for the town, our university, and our program!

I wasn’t aware how we stacked up either, but we got good praise mostly on the College Game Day thread on Reddit.

Watched a little of Coastal and there was a sign displayed right in the TV camera view consistently: "I PISS TEAL"

I thought was a little much to see frequently on ESPN+

Mine was a bit redder than teal last year and come to find out I had kidney cancer and needing the kidney removed. I hope he sees a doctor.

Was it not our own PBR that had that sign in Michigan? Maybe it was him.

The only sure bet yesterday was the PBR would have that sign.

I thought it was the most picturesque game day I've ever seen. That's God's country and we showed out. Well done Mountaineer Nation!

I was hoping someone would post this. There is a youtube clip of the picks someone can go back and track them all down. I know of only one game he got right for the winner but he precited a more lop-sided game than what happened.

From what I found on one site, Corso was 8-5 and Luke was 6-6. (they didn't have his pick for the Kansas game, but Corso did on one of the sites i looked at).

Luke picked the following correct: App, Southern Cal, Texas A&M, LSU, Oregon and Notre Dame
He missed on: NDSU, Michigan State, Texas Tech, Auburn, Nebraska, and Purdue

The Chancellor was out and about with the students late Friday night at" Camp Yosef " as I understand it ,but asked DK to rep as a way to help build up basketball exposure.
