ESPN viewers were far from impressed with Lainey Wilson’s performance during the first College GameDay show of the season on Saturday.The country music star joined Pat McAfee, Nick Saban and the other stars in Baton Rouge, Louisiana ahead of Lane Kiffin’s first game in charge of the Tigers against Clemson.After delivering her predictions for the game and upcoming season, Wilson then took to the stage for a performance with the LSU marching band. While the thousands of fans gathered outside Tiger Stadium enjoyed the performance, it did not go down well with ESPN’s viewers at home and some even described it as ‘unwatchable’.One viewer commented: ‘I’d give anything to be deaf today. There are actual people that pay money for that “music?” Good god kill me now.’Another posted: ‘Country music is garbage. This once great show is unwatchable.’ ESPN viewers were far from impressed with Lainey Wilson’s performance on College GameDay The country music star joined Pat McAfee , Nick Saban and the other stars in Baton Rouge A third replied: ‘Awful. This made me turn the channel.”I’m sorry but it was terrible and I like Lainey!’ another claimed, while one viewer posted: ‘That was… kinda rough to watch’. ESPN’s College GameDay was thrown into chaos earlier on Saturday morning after a lightning storm forced the crew to evacuate their set.The crew – featuring McAfee, host Rece Davis, Kirk Herbstreit, Desmond Howard, and legendary former Alabama coach Saban – had set up on the LSU campus ahead of the Tigers’ blockbuster season opener against Clemson.However, midway through the opening hour, severe weather rolling through the area triggered safety protocols, forcing an abrupt halt to the outdoor broadcast.Addressing viewers as the broadcast scrambled, Davis broke the news to fans that the team had to abandon the outdoor stage.’The only thing that’s gone against us right now, unfortunately, is that we have some [bad] weather in the area,’ Davis said on air. ‘We’re going to have to move inside briefly.”LSU and the people who take care of our safety, because there’s lightning close by, we’re going to have to move inside.’We encourage all of our friends here, make sure you stay safe away from the lightning,’ the veteran host added. ESPN’s College GameDay was thrown into chaos on Saturday morning after a lightning storm Pat McAfee and Co were forced to head to an auditorium on LSU’s campus for their broadcastESPN quickly cut away to studio coverage, airing highlights and college football analysis while the on-site production team worked to relocate the entire operation.Incredibly, it took the crew just 12 minutes to get back on the air, setting up an impromptu desk inside what appeared to be an auditorium on campus – before later returning outside once the weather cleared.The emergency move, however, drained much of the raucous atmosphere typical of the show, with the crew broadcasting from the quiet stage while thousands of soaked fans remained stranded outside.The chaotic evacuation followed an eventful opening segment that saw McAfee savagely booed by the Baton Rouge faithful after taking aim at new LSU head coach Lane Kiffin.The former punter had riled up the crowd by referencing his past skepticism over Kiffin leaving Ole Miss for LSU, recounting how he previously said: ‘You’re going to LSU to win a National Championship? Your team’s in the playoffs, you can win a National Championship now, bro. Why do you want to go down to Baton Rouge? That seems like a stupid idea.’McAfee eventually won back the hostile audience by conceding he had come around to Kiffin’s arrival in Baton Rouge, warning the rest of college football that Death Valley will be a ‘problem’ in 2026.
