If you enjoyed watching Ted Lasso Season 4 on Apple TV, you'll likely want to check out the next celebrity guest picker on ESPN College GameDay before Notre Dame's football game against Miami.
Notre Dame and Pat McAfee announced that Ted Lasso star and creator Jason Sudeikis will be this week's celebrity guest picker on College GameDay. Sudeikis reacted to the announcement while appearing on McAfee's show. He appreciated McAfee bringing up a “deep cut,” saying he saw him while he was in an off-Broadway production of Dead Poets Society.

A different X user said “gross,” while another said, “This ain't it.” We'll see if Sudeikis can turn these fans' reactions around when he's on the show.
