Timothée Chalamet Announced as College GameDay Guest Picker for SEC Championship

The actor's selection for the Texas vs. Georgia matchup has drawn mixed reactions due to his lack of ties to college football.

Timothée Chalamet, a Hollywood actor known for films like 'Dune' and 'Call Me By Your Name,' will appear as the guest picker on ESPN's College GameDay this weekend.
The announcement comes ahead of the SEC Championship game between Georgia and Texas, a matchup with significant College Football Playoff implications.
Fans expressed confusion over Chalamet's selection, noting his lack of connection to college football or either of the competing teams.
Some speculate the decision aligns with Disney's promotional strategy, as Chalamet stars in upcoming Disney-affiliated projects like 'A Complete Unknown.'
This marks a departure from College GameDay's usual practice of selecting guest pickers with ties to the schools or the sport itself.
