It’s clockwork at this point.

Surely someone with an actual association with the University can be found. Third or fourth time they’ve chosen someone with no affiliation or is an outright supporter of the other team.

No other program gets this treatment.

It's ridiculously easy to find Alabama alums who have never been the Guest Picker.

It’s pretty funny at this point.

Surely they’ll lean into it at some point and make light of it.

Have a big Auburn guy guest pick next time

It’s not that easy….If you don’t include former athletes, which former alum do you choose?

Much easier to choose an Alabama fan.

They picked a former athlete for every host this season prior to today.

I wouldn’t mind seeing Courtney Cox…

Hell even ol Bernie madoff would have been a good one before he bit the dust.

He did give like 200m to the university

yup courtney or the girl who wears Bama panties forget her name

or even Sela Ward

This is not acceptable and hope they make some poster boards which clearly show displeasure during gameday

I wouldn’t mind Marilyn Hewson the President of Lockheed Martin probably one of the biggest most important companies in the world.

We have a lot of great alumni or fans.

Hell, make Nick Saban the guest picker. It’s bound to happen sometime

Why not Nate Oats? One of the hottest basketball coaches in the country? I mean, it really isn't hard and you don't have to go far to find a famous person connected to Bama.

Richard Shelby? Joe Scarborough? Robert Horry? Sonequa Martin-Green?

Seems like they wouldn’t pick someone who had a mental breakdown in the last ten days.
