Over the course of his career, Scheffler has won thirteen events on the PGA Tour as a professional, including several majors, and the Masters twice, including this year’s edition.

Outside of Austin, there are a lot of fascinating games on the college football landscape, such as Alabama bee Tennessee, Miami bee Louisville And Michigan bee Illinois. See the full range of picks from this week’s edition College GameDay below.

ESPN College GameDay Picks for Week 8:

Georgia in Texas: No choice for Herbstreit because he is on the phone in Austin, but the rest of the crew had to broadcast their choice to the world. Howard picked the Longhorns, cowboy hat and all, while Saban legitimately flipped a coin, and Texas ended up being the beneficiary. McAfee picks against the home team? Not a chance, while Scheffler would always ride with the Longhorns too.

As for Corso, he stands by his Longhorns national championship prediction as he grabbed the Hook ‘Em header for Texas’ clean sweep from the College GameDay crew.

Alabama in Tennessee: The third Saturday in October is always fun to watch. The crew is split, with Saban, Scheffler and Corso on the Crimson Tide, while Howard, McAfee and Herbstreit ride with the Volunteers.

UCF at Iowa State: Everyone is on the Cyclones in week 8.

State of Kansas in West Virginia: McAfee still champions his Mountaineers as the potential Big 12 champions, but all he could do was convince Saban to join him in picking West Virginia.

Colorado in Arizona: Herbstreit chose the Wildcats, but the rest of the crew chose Coach Prime and the Buffaloes.

Nebraska and Indiana: Can the Hoosiers remain undefeated? Saban is the only part of the team that is picking Indiana to get the win.

Michigan in Illinois: A win over the Wolverines would be huge for the Fighting Illini. Only Howard and McAfee believe Michigan can beat Illinois in Week 8.

Miami at Louisville: Herbstreit picked the Cardinals, but everyone else is riding with the Hurricanes.

Notre Dame at Georgia Tech: Everyone believes in the Fighting Irish.

LSU at Arkansas: The crew is split: Howard, Corso and Herbstreit on the Tigers, Saban, McAfee and Scheffler on the Razorbacks.

Oklahoma in South Carolina: Herbstreit was the only dissenter, brave enough to save the image and pick the Sooners in Austin.
