Paul Skenes & his girlfriend Olivia Dunne pick the winner between LSU vs Alabama in College GameDay as they steal the spotlight
Pittsburgh Pirates ace Paul Skenes and his girlfriend, Olivia Dunne were College GameDay's guest pickers on Saturday. Skenes helped LSU win the College World Series in 2023 while Dunne and the gymnastics teams took home a championship last season.
LSU will host Alabama on Saturday evening in what could be one of the most exciting games of the season. LSU is ranked 15 while Alabama is No. 11 in the nation. Both teams have two losses apiece coming into this one.
As Skenes is an alumnus of LSU and Dunne is returning for her fifth year of eligibility, you may have guessed who they have winning this game. Both stand firm with the Tigers.
"I mean, a night game in Death Valley? There's only one right answer, and it's LSU" said Dunne.
Dunne does not see the Crimson Tide having too much success in Death Valley. It is considered one of the most difficult stadiums in all of college football to play at, with thousands of screaming and loyal fans.
Paul Skenes and Olivia Dunne made history on College GameDay
Paul Skenes and Olivia Dunne seemed to have a good time being guest pickers on College GameDay. The duo became the first couple to make their picks in the show's history.
The couple had to do their homework before appearing on the show. They were not tasked with just picking the winner in the LSU vs Alabama game, they had a handful of games they had to make picks for.
The couple had to make picks for nine games in total. And one of those picks has already come back as a loser. Dunne and Skenes liked Miami to win against Georgia Tech, but Georgia Tech pulled off the upset.
