The wildest things celebrity guest picker Johnny Knoxville said on College Gameday
· Fox News
It's been quite the scene in Knoxville, Tennessee, Saturday. President Donald Trump is in attendance, the No. 1 team in the country is in town, Holly Rowe and Texas head coach Steve Sarkisian had their first interview since he abruptly ended their interview following their upset win over Ohio State, and Johnny Knoxville was ESPN College Gameday's celebrity guest picker. While dressed in a complete Tennessee Volunteers football uniform, Knoxville made some statements that were just as outrageous as some of his stunts on MTV’s hit show "Jackass."

When choosing the winner of the Missouri and Mississippi State, Knoxville hilariously took aim at McAfee's musical career. "I'm so sure about this game, that if Missouri loses, I will punish myself by listening to Pat McAfee's new album on repeat until Halloween." McAfee busted out a huge laugh immediately with Knoxville saying, "No offense."
During the Georgia vs Oklahoma selection, Knoxville assigned some pretty gross medical ailments to the respective teams. "You know, I'm from Knoxville so this is like rooting for the gout versus the syphilis. I'm going with the gout. I'll take Georgia," Knoxville stated, while McAfee put his face in his hands and Herbstreit shook his head in disbelief. I hope your kids weren't watching this selection, folks.
LSU head coach Lane Kiffin is the butt of many jokes this season after his rough departure from Ole Miss in the offseason and the loss last Saturday against his former squad so the moment to choose LSU or Texas A&M was primed for Knoxville to lower the boom in his own, special, usually gross way. "I don't know how anyone can root for Lane "Left Out in the Parking Lot" Kiffin. He is to college football what toe fungus is to flip flops. I'm going with A&M."

Now it was time for the Volunteers fans to pick the winner of Texas vs Tennessee. After discussing the Tennessee defensive questions, and taking a shot at Texas' offense, Knoxville made his pick. "After the game today, Tennessee will remain the real UT, and Texas will remain the real UTI." The reaction by Rece Davis and Desmond Howard was priceless. Both of them couldn't believe their ears, but it shouldn't have been a shocker after two-plus minutes of unhinged statements.

Knoxville also jokingly tried slipping a referee a $20 bill pregame during an interview. He was truly a one-of-a-kind, PG-13-rated guest.
