    One of the most entertaining shows in the world of college football, ESPN's College GameDay, is about to get a jolt of energy this week as former Seattle Seahawk and California Golden Bears legend Marshawn Lynch joins as a guest picker.

    Lynch, who has been better known as "Beast Mode" for the past decade, is among the most charismatic people in the world of football, celebrated for his hilarious catchphrases and overall unpredictable nature. He will be back in town this week as California hosts GameDay ahead of their matchup with the Miami Hurricanes on Saturday.

    Putting Lynch on live television will be entertaining, and putting him next to ESPN's Pat McAfee — a person with similar boisterous and daring tendencies — will be entrancing.

    Putting the legendary Nick Saban in between them is going to be must-see television.

    Saban has already gone viral this year for his stoic nature sitting alongside a dancing and partying McAfee during a GameDay broadcast. It will be interesting to see how he handles both Beastmode and McAfee at his elbows.

    Lynch, a Super Bowl winner with the Seattle Seahawks, will forever be a legend in Berkley. It wasn't just his 3,230 yards, and 29 touchdowns for the Golden Bears that made him reach legend status, but his romp around the field while driving a medical cart that will last in everyone's memory for eternity.

    Fortunately for Saban's sanity, Lynch will only be on the desk with the GameDay crew for the final segment of the show to make their picks. Anything beyond that, and I think the legendary Alabama coach might go insane.
