#lee corso

Beginning in October 1996, after the panelists made predictions of the weekend’s major games ending with the on location game featuring the home crowd piled together behind, Corso asked for an extra headpiece from the mascot.

With his first being Brutus Buckeye of Ohio State.

429 more of these would follow for nearly 30 years. With all spectrums of FB and FCS mascots.

Or in the cases of USC and Michigan, the team helmets.

So it was fitting with his 431st and concluding prediction, he went with his “first love”

Gameday will still be “Coming to Your City” but it will lose a piece of what made it eventful.
