Actor and comedian Jason Sudeikis will serve as the guest picker for ESPN's College GameDay when the show visits Notre Dame on November 5, 2026. The Emmy-winning star of "Ted Lasso" joins the long-running college football pregame program's tradition of featuring celebrity guests to make weekly game predictions.
College GameDay, which has been broadcast since 1987, travels to a different campus each week during the college football season. The guest picker segment typically airs near the end of the three-hour show, where the celebrity selects winners for key matchups alongside the regular analysts.
Sudeikis, a Kansas native, has been a visible presence in sports entertainment since his breakout role as AFC Richmond coach Ted Lasso. The series, which premiered in 2020, earned him multiple awards and widespread acclaim for its portrayal of an American football coach navigating English soccer.
