Who did the ESPN College GameDay hosts pick in tonight's FSU Seminoles vs. Syracuse Orange game?

Tonight, it's a big battle between two teams on the upward trend as the Florida State Seminoles (6-3 overall, 4-3 ACC) take on the Syracuse Orange (6-3, 3-2). And ESPN College GameDay took a shot at picking tonight's game at JMA Wireless Dome in Syracuse, N.Y.

The hosts were in Austin, Texas, the site of tonight's TCU-Texas game. Two hosts, Desmond Howard and Pat McAfee, took Florida State, along with this week's guest picker, PGA Tour star Jordan Spieth, who played collegiate golf with the Longhorns.

Only Kirk Herbstreit went against the grain, choosing Syracuse, basing his pick on the Orange's strong defense.

Lee Corso, ESPN's headgear-wearing host and a former FSU player and coach, was out this week as he is recovering from health issues.
