ESPN announced that Hollywood movie star Timothée Chalamet will serve as a guest selector for “College GameDay” in Atlanta this weekend ahead of the Texas-Georgia SEC Championship Game.

However, fans were confused about Chalamet’s selection, as the “Dune” star has no clear connection to any of the playing schools.

“Nothing says SEC better than a New York City Ivy Leaguer with dual citizenship in the US and France. That summed it up,” one person wrote on X.

Chalamet grew up in New York City and has French citizenship due to his father being born in France. He spent his summers in France with his grandparents.

The “Wonka” star also attended Columbia University, but transferred to New York University’s Gallatin School of Individualized Study. Chalamet eventually dropped out of New York University to pursue acting full-time.

“I like some of Timothée Chalamet’s films. “What does he know about college football?” another wrote.

“Not once did I look at Timothée Chalamet and say, ‘I wonder what he thinks about the college football landscape,'” one post read.

Chalamet is a huge New York Knicks fan and has been to several games at Madison Square Garden to watch his team play. However, he is not known to be a college football fan.

Typically, the show chooses as a guest selector someone who has a connection to the game they are previewing.

Former Ohio State University quarterback Justin Fields was a guest player when the show took place in Columbus, Ohio, for the Buckeyes’ game against Indiana. Former LSU pitcher Paul Skenes and LSU gymnast Olivia Dunne were the pickers when the show was in Baton Rouge, Louisiana, for the LSU-Alabama match.

Golfer Scottie Scheffler was also the guest picker when the show went to his alma mater, Texas, to cover the Longhorns’ game against Georgia.

Who knows, maybe Chalamet will impress fans with his knowledge of college football and meet his favorites.
