Scottie Scheffler appeared on ESPN’s “College Gameday” in Austin, Texas on Saturday and was tasked with being the show’s guest selector this week.
Among Scheffler’s predictions were wins for South Carolina, Arkansas, Illinois, Indiana, Colorado, Kansas State, Iowa State, Alabama and his alma mater, Texas.
A notable pick for the No. 1 golfer in the world was No. 6 Miami over Louisville. The reigning Masters and Open Championship winner was confident the Hurricanes would improve to 7-0 against the team in the city where he had spent a brief stint in prison earlier this year.
Noted Louisville fan Scottie Scheffler took on the Cardinals.
