When it comes to deciding the winner of the Fiesta Bowl, Daniel the Orangutan had second thoughts.

He made his way onto a climbing structure at the Phoenix Zoo where he was presented with two shirts representing both teams playing in the 2015 Fiesta Bowl.

Ohio State or Notre Dame? Which one would Daniel pick?

He initially went toward the red shirt, touched it even, but somewhere had a change of heart and quickly walked away with the dark navy shirt. His pick was solidified: Notre Dame will win the Fiesta Bowl.

The two teams go against each other on New Year's Day at University of Phoenix Stadium in Glendale.
