Who is the College GameDay celebrity guest picker? Danica Patrick

"College GameDay" announced Danica Patrick as its celebrity guest picker in a tweet on Saturday.

The Wisconsin native is one of the most decorated woman in the history of racing, including becoming the first woman to lead the Indy 500 and the first to win the pole position at the Daytona 500.

"I was brought up to be the fastest driver, not the fastest girl," Patrick said, according to the Indianapolis Motor Speedway website. I've been lucky enough to make history and be the first woman to do many things. We have a lot more history to make and we are excited to do it."
