WASHINGTON — Lee Corso has made his final headgear pick as host on ESPN's "College GameDay."

On Saturday, the longtime host put on Brutus Buckeye for the 46th time in his broadcasting career. His final appearance on the show came right before No. 3 Ohio State kicked off against top-ranked Texas.

"Give me my first love," he said in front of the Ohio Stadium.

Corso, who turned 90 on Aug. 7, has been a part of “GameDay” since its start in 1987 and has made pregame shows entertaining under a simple philosophy: “Football is just the vehicle. It’s entertainment, sweetheart.”

GameDay’s 26th appearance in Columbus, Ohio, also marked a full-circle moment for Corso. It was outside Ohio Stadium on Oct. 5, 1996, where Corso’s popular headgear prediction segment began.
