MLB's 2015 season was nothing if not "The Year of Bartolo Colon."

The 2005 AL Cy Young Award winner was named the Opening Day starting pitcher for the Mets, went on to make a team-high 31 starts, pitched his first shutout since July 21, 2013, set a career high in hits, led all qualified MLB pitchers with 1.1 BB9, earned his first win in a League Championship Series since 1998 and dazzled baseball fans with his impressive baserunning and behind-the-back defensive gems:

So it's only fitting that fans are already craving more Tolo, even though we're just a few weeks into the dreaded offseason. On Saturday -- while Torii Hunter Jr. and the Notre Dame Fighting Irish prepared to take on Boston College ... at Fenway Park -- Lee Corso and the rest of ESPN's "College GameDay" crew set up shop in Columbus, Ohio, to preview No. 3 Ohio State vs. No. 9 Michigan State.

In keeping with college football's most storied tradition, college students flooded the background of the set and filled it with acrostic signs, memes and giant floating heads. And it was there -- buoying among the sea of Ronda Rousey and "Star Wars" references -- that baseball's more observant fans could recognize a familiar face:

Nothing says "college football game of the week" quite like an enlarged image of the face of a 42-year-old fifth-starting pitcher who plays a baseball team that has nothing to do with either teams playing in said game of the week.
