American Pharoah picks UCLA to beat Arizona, but Lee Corso’s mascot head disagrees

James Dator
James Dator has been covering a wide range of sports for SB Nation for over a decade, with a special focus on the NFL.

Triple Crown winning trainer (and Arizona alum) Bob Baffert was on College GameDay ahead of Arizona vs. UCLA and of course there was a HORSE PICK from American Pharoah!

Kudos to Baffert here. It would have been so easy to rig this Horse Pick, but he respected the sanctity of the Horse Pick. There are clearly carrots under the UCLA hat, too. He could have only put carrots under the Arizona hat. He could have put something horses hate under the UCLA hate like ... horseradish.

Lee Corso said “I like horse, but I love cats” then picked Arizona to cheers, and blew a bugle out of a whisker when he missed the mouth.
