Texas Tech fans wished on a star to get Patrick Mahomes back on campus for College GameDay, and their wish was granted as the star former quarterback made his presence known at the desk with his game picks.
There was never any question that Mahomes would take the Red Raiders over the Cougars with his game pick, but he got the entirety of Jones AT&T Stadium on their feet with his electric pick. Texas Tech is wearing uniforms designed by Mahomes and Adidas, and it might be the extra juice they need to take over the Big 12.
Mahomes had to put some his football knowledge to good used talking about how good this Red Raiders defense. Mahomes knows a lot about reading good defenses, so of course his pick for the Red Raiders is big.
The rest of the desk seemed to agree with Mahomes as Desmond Howard and Nick Saban went with the Red Raiders. Pat McAfee really almost faked out the desk crew and the crowd by going with No. 7 BYU, but of course, he went with the home and went with the Red Raiders.
Mahomes made lots of picks and it will be seen if he boasts the best guest picker record this season after this week.
