It didn’t take long for things to get weird on College GameDay this season.
ESPN’s flagship pregame show traveled to Charlotte for Saturday’s battle between North Carolina and South Carolina in the Duke’s Mayo Classic. The broadcast featured crazed fans on both sides, but one fan in particular might have taken things a little too far.
While headed to a commercial break, the broadcast showed one fan, without a shirt on, taking a bath in mayonnaise (presumably Duke’s brand) to show off his enthusiasm. The result was one of the most disgusting visuals you will see all season.

Michigan is playing without head coach Jim Harbaugh today, but fans watching on television would’ve thought he was lost for the season.
The Wolverines athletic department decided to hand down a self-imposed three-game suspension to Harbaugh for his role in an NCAA recruiting investigation. The school was trying to get out in-front of any further punishment down the road, so they are keeping Jim Harbaugh off the sidelines for the first three games.
But, if you were watching the Michigan vs. East Carolina game, the Wolverines were acting as if Harbaugh was never returning to the sidelines.
Former Ole Miss quarterback Chad Kelly couldn’t carve out a career in the NFL, but he seems to have found his calling in the CFL. On Thursday, the Toronto Argonauts agreed to a three-year extension worth $1.865 million with Kelly, making the quarterback the highest paid player in the CFL.
Kelly, the nephew of former Bills great Jim Kelly, put up great numbers in college, totaling 6,800 passing yards and 50 passing touchdowns in two years at Ole Miss after transferring from East MississippiCommunity College.
ESPN’s College Gameday is headed back to Tuscaloosa, Ala., next Saturday for an early-season showdown between two of college football’s elite programs.
The network’s flagship pregame show announced its Week 2 destination Saturday morning, sharing that its crew will be on site for one of next week’s top-25 matchup between Texas and Alabama. The last time College GameDay visited Tuscaloosa was when prior to the Crimson Tide’s 41-24 win over Georgia on Oct. 17, 2020.
The American has reached out to Army to discuss adding the service academy as a football-only member of the conference, sources told ESPN’s Pete Thamel. SMU agreed Friday to leave the AAC for the ACC.
Travis Kelce is pleading with teammate Chris Jones to come back home to the Kansas City Chiefs.
The star defensive end Jones was set to enter the final year of his $80 million, four-year deal. However, he’s been absent from training camp and preseason as he holds out for a larger deal. He reportedly wants upwards of $30 million.
With the Chiefs and Jones at a standstill, it doesn’t appear that Jones will be on the field for the team’s home opener vs.the Detroit Lions on Thursday.
Enter, Travis Kelce.
Michigan will take the field for Saturday’s opener against ECU without coach Jim Harbaugh, who is set to begin a self-imposed three-game suspension for alleged recruiting infractions.
Though the two-time defending Big Ten champs may be without their sideline leader, one of their leaders on the field is making sure Harbaugh’s name doesn’t go forgotten as the 2023 season gets underway.
Wolverines quarterback J.J. McCarthy proudly led his team off the bus Saturday morning while wearing a makeshift “Free Harbaugh” t-shirt.
These days, there are a number of umpires in Major League Baseball who aren’t very good at their job.
Ángel Hernández reminded fans why he might be the worst of the bunch after a terrible performance in the Blue Jays’ 13-9 win against the Rockies on Friday night at Coors Field. He missed 21 calls in the game, according to Umpire Auditor on X.
Hernández’s most glaring blunder occurred when he failed to called an obvious third strike from Rockies pitcher Chris Flexen against the Blue Jays’ Danny Jansen in the top of the sixth inning with one out and one runner on first.
College football fans chose Fox’s Big Noon Kickoff over College GameDay Saturday morning because, well, some were forced to.
Because of the ongoing Disney-Spectrum feud, those who use Spectrum for their TV-viewing needs lost access to ESPN days ago. So, as the two sides work towards a new agreement, those who wanted their Week 1 college football fix flipped over to the other college kickoff show.
And, you know what? It’s probably time to stay there, too. Stick around, folks. It’s much better over here, and that’s coming from a College GameDay truther.

Ferrari puts both drivers in the top three at their home race
Max Verstappen is the driver chasing history.
But it seems the Ferrari duo of Carlos Sainz Jr. and Charles Leclerc are going to make him earn it.
With a win in Sunday’s Italian Grand Prix at Monza, Verstappen will set a new Formula 1 record with ten straight victories. However, the path to that historic mark got a little tougher on Saturday, as Sainz edged past him for pole position.
