Lee Corso picks TCU’s Horned Frog for 300th headgear pick on GameDay
Did you expect anything else?
Lee Corso’s historic 300th headgear pick on ESPN’s College GameDay Saturday morning got the full TCU Horned Frog treatment as he picked the Frogs to beat West Virginia.
It’s a good sign. TCU is 4-0 when Corso has picked the Horned Frogs in the past.

The last time he picked them they edged out the Mountaineers 31-30 in 2014. That was in Morgantown, W. Va. The GameDay show was on the TCU campus Saturday and several thousand students cheered wildly when Corso made his show-closing pick.
Corso is 196-103 all-time in headgear picks since the bit started on Oct. 5, 1996, in Columbus, Ohio. Among the 299 headgear picks, Corso has donned 56 different headgears, with Alabam (27), Ohio State (25) and Florida and Florida State (19 each) getting the most.
