The Nittany Lions' Hall of Fame linebacker will serve as the guest picker for GameDay's coverage of Penn State-Oregon.

Penn State is a 3.5-point favorite against the Ducks according to the latest betting odds, although the betting lines have been trending in Oregon's favor since the start of the season. Orgeon has come flying out of the gates with its high-powered offensive production and Penn State has started off much slower than desired with an easy schedule.

College GameDay will air from 9 a.m. to noon Saturday to preview a packed day of college football, including the White Out. Arrington will join in the final few minutes to make his picks alongside the desk of Rece Davis, Kirk Herbstreit, Desmond Howard, Nick Saban and Pat McAfee.

It’s the Nittany Lions’ first appearance since Nov. 2, 2024, when Penn State hosted Ohio State in Happy Valley.

New details are being released for fans interested in attending ESPN’s College GameDay ahead of Saturday’s White Out between Penn State and Oregon.

This contest is a rematch of last season’s Big Ten Championship, which Oregon won, though the Ducks later fell to Ohio State in the College Football Playoff. Meanwhile, Penn State advanced to the semifinals before being eliminated by Notre Dame.

Oregon and Penn State have an opportunity to assert themselves as the dominant force in the conference and strengthen their College Football Playoff case... while potentially making a statement to the NFL as well.
