ESPN's "College GameDay" is headed to Berkeley, California, for the first time ever, with a campus legend serving as the show's celebrity guest picker for Cal-Miami.

Former Golden Bears running back Marshawn Lynch will be on "GameDay" for Cal's (3-1, 0-1 ACC) game against No. 8 Miami (5-0, 1-0) on Saturday night.

The Super Bowl 48 champion, two-time All-Pro selection, five-time Pro Bowler and member of the NFL's 2010 All-Decade team played for the Buffalo Bills, Seattle Seahawks and Oakland Raiders in his 12 NFL seasons.
