USCw
Ohio State

Because of Herbie ... and their football success should be considered, I guess.

Nice thread. It brings back memories of '94 in the "Old Gray Lady." That was Bama's first time.

Nope and I have no desire to go either. I do wish they would go to more "out of the way" places. Remember when they went to North Dakota? Some of these group of 4 schools have beautiful campus' and it would be nice to see those from time to time. The west coast is a little tricky bc of the time difference, its always dark when the show comes on. If they go north, they need to go early in the year bc of the weather. The south is burning hot during the start of the season. Just change the places from the norm from time to time.

I went to Gameday years ago when gameday was in Atlanta for the Georgia Tech-Notre Dame game when Calvin Johnson was there. I was living at the KA house at Tech at the time and had a lot of my buddies that went to tech. It was a fun day, primetime game. Notre Dame won, but the day was a college student's dream. Wake up early, start drinking, dress nice, go to gameday, watch football all day, go to the late game, and then band party.

LOL, I've stopped by on a handful of occasions when they were on the UA campus way, way back... but didn't really stand in line or anything, just walked up with some friends (or by myself) and watched in the crowd for a bit. The funniest was back in 2005, Joe Scarborough (UA Alum) held his MSNBC show on the Quad the day Bama played the Vols. I remember walks back to my truck across the Quad and he was live on air with about 9 fans watching him. I think he came at least one other time too.

Yes, and no. Like Brandon I walked by a few times. I've watched the crew set up more than the show.

I don't want to be around a bunch of people screaming on a Saturday morning: buzz killer.

I was down in Tuscaloosa on campus when both ESPN GameDay and SEC Nation were there. I don't remember the year or the game, but it was probably a top-5 match-up if both shows were there.

This is most Game Day appearances.

Most Game Day hosts:

OSU - 26
UA - 19

I said this to a friend of mine who stopped by yesterday. He brought up GameDay being in town and asked if I'd heard the news.

I added something. Looking back I probably learned more watching the crew set up the stage than I did/have watching the show.

I went in 2015 vs LSU because I was a student. It is boring as fuck. My friends and I left 30 minutes in to go grab breakfast.

I was at gameday a few years ago. I went to three back to back UF and FSU games back when Bobby Bowden was still coaching. 1995, 1996, and 1997. 1996 was 1 versus 2 and gameday was there in Tallahassee and gameday came back the following year at the swamp. In the middle of the '97 game Ric Flair got to the game and was trying to find his seat, signing autographs and such. Then like someone hit a switch the whole place went "WOOOOO!"

Here is a list of guess picker, yet to be announcements! I may watch this now?

• Julio Jones: A former dominant Alabama receiver and NFL retiree.
• Josh Jacobs: A former Alabama star and NFL running back whose team is on a bye week, making him available.
• Justin Thomas: A PGA Tour golfer who has served as a guest picker before.
• Herb Jones

If I may once again suggest. If you want a preview show for college football Saturday morning which doesn't have all the "honey, do you feel good" spots or the over the top theatrics? Watch CBS Sports HQ.

It's still in the studio. There aren't "human interest" stories: it's football. (You'll still see a Bama alum.)

Paramount+, Pluto TV, Plex, and several others have the channel. The only slight drawback is Kannel. He isn't in his "trolling suits" during the broadcast like you see on X.
