The College GameDay legend was at the Rose Bowl in Pasadena, California with the rest of the crew.
Pat McAfee is joined by Nick Saban, Kirk Herbstreit, Rhys Davis and Desmond Howard in the group.
While Corso made sporadic appearances during the three hours preceding the first CFP encounter of the day.
These clips were enough to alarm viewers, who flocked to social media to comment.
“Lee Corso may have to retire soon, he looks bad,” someone said on X, formerly known as Twitter.
“My Corso looks worse every week if he actually exists,” another wrote.
A third posted: “Lee Corso is 90 and goes out every weekend to college games. God bless him.”
While a fourth said: “Watching Lee Corso is embarrassing and annoying.”
Corso missed several weeks of College GameDay this season due to health issues.
He has been with the program since its inception in 1987.
Corso joined his crewmates for a special edition of the show on Wednesday.
It usually airs on Saturday mornings during the regular season.
But the team was broadcasting ahead of the final three CFP Tournament quarterfinal games on Wednesday.
They came on the air at 10 AM ET and remained live until the game between Texas and Arizona State at 1 PM ET.
This was followed by the Peach Bowl in Atlanta, Georgia and the Rose Bowl, from which College GameDay broadcasts.
How the 12-Team CFP Works
The first 12-team College Football Playoff begins on Friday, December 20.
But who will enter?
All four of the top-seeded conference champions in the first round will be guaranteed a round-robin round in the new year.
The top-5 ranked conference champion will also be guaranteed a spot, regardless of whether it is ranked among the top 12 teams in the country.
This ensures that a champion from one of the Tier II conferences will have a chance to play in the national championship.
Teams seeded fifth through eighth will host a first-round playoff game on Friday, December 20th or Saturday, December 21st.
They will face teams ranked from ninth to twelfth.
All of these rankings and rankings are determined by a CFP committee – based on record and strength of schedule among other factors.
This year's national championship game will be held on Monday, January 20 at Mercedes-Benz Stadium in Atlanta, Georgia.
The game in Pasadena, California featured Ohio State versus Oregon in a rematch of the Big Ten Championship.
But the third match, which was scheduled for Wednesday, was postponed after the terrorist attack that occurred in New Orleans.
The city was scheduled to host a Sugar Bowl showdown between Notre Dame and Georgia.
That game was postponed 24 hours after at least 10 people were killed when a pickup truck driver plowed into crowds.
The first quarterfinal game was played Tuesday night with Penn State defeating Boise State.
