Sports’ hottest couple Olivia Dunne and Paul Skenes will represent their LSU roots on Saturday, as guest pickers for College GameDay on ESPN.
The gymnast and her MLB-playing boyfriend are among the school’s biggest names, and they’ll be in Baton Rouge for the huge game against Alabama on Saturday.
It has now been revealed that ESPN have recruited the high-profile pair to appear on their College GameDay show alongside the likes of Pat McAfee and Nick Saban this week, where they will be the guest pickers.
The role, which is occupied by a different famous name each week, will involve the pair sitting on the panel with the other analysts, predicting the scores for a series of college football games in this Saturday’s slate.
There will be a huge crowd on campus at LSU ahead of one of the biggest games of the season, and Livvy took to social media to reveal her excitement.
Posting on Thursday night, she said: ‘Can’t wait!!! Let’s geaux’
Both Skenes and Dunne are campus celebrities at LSU, with the former having won the College World Series in 2023, before becoming a starting pitcher for the Pittsburgh Pirates in MLB last season.
Dunne is one of the country’s biggest NIL stars and also won a national title with the school, performing on the LSU Gymnastics team.
While Skenes has moved on to pastures new, Dunne revealed she is returning for one final year in 2024-25.
Last month, Dunne shared hilarious footage of her boyfriend as he returned to Baton Rogue and tried to reenact maneuvers at the LSU gymnastics training facility.
‘Rating our newest LSU Gymnastics recruit,’ Dunne wrote in the first clip, showing her giggling coyly at the camera before revealing her boyfriend as the said recruit.
The video then proceeded to a montage of Skenes trying out different gymnastic apparatus, including Dunne’s rating and takeaways.
The first part of Skenes’ highlight reel showed him bouncing on the trampoline. Dunne gave him a six out of ten rating and wrote ‘Not very aerodynamic, having fun though.’
