Clemson vs USC


There's a lot bigger Rivalry games that week (on a national stage)

So Unfortunately I don't see this happening.

Unless of course both of us are competing for Conference Championships the next week.

this is also very possible

Gators could easily be undefeated coming into the WLOCP and so could we

I think it is unlikely you come in with more than 1 loss (LSU & State will be tough games, but I think y'all split at a minimum)

I don't know what else will be available that weekend; but I think it i unlikely to be the CG pick since I think y'all will already have been featured just 2 weeks earlier

IDK

if y'all are 10-2 or better, I could see it - I even think it is likely

their game with you is the best chance they have to get the show this year on campus; the only other game that looks to have a chance is the Clemson vs GA Tech game

I'll make a bet with you that it isnt.
Too many other games.

Auburn-Bama, Ohio Sate-Mich, USC-Notre Dame

Not sure that matters.
Gameday went to Mich-Wisconsin, Ou-Okie State and West Virginia TCU last year and all those games weer on Fox.

Florida and State are both preseason ranked. If both teams are 4-0 and you throw in the Mullen storyline, this has potential to be a big game, potentially a college gameday depending on how the national landscape looks after 4 weeks.

Ohio State plays at Penn State that day.

State/ UF will be a story line, but will not be the location.

I would think week 2 would either be Clemson @ A&M, or UCLA @ OU.

Probably the Clemson game. That early in the season, I’m sure they’d love to talk about Chip Kelly or Jimbo Fisher going up against an elite team with their new squads. Definitely could find some solid storylines there.

Outside chance of UGA-USC and USC-Stanford.

I honestly think Mississippi State Auburn has a better chance to be on College Gameday than that game.

After you turn 25, you'll quit caring about Gameday.

Due to Ms ST and LSU and Tenn sucking so bad, this is actually possible.

Has Gameday ever gone to Jax?

Here's what I'll guess for each week (back up choices in parentheses):

Week 1: Michigan @ ND (Auburn-UW; Bama-Louisville)
Week 2: Clemson @ A&M (USC @ Stanford; UGA @ SC; UCLA @ OU)
Week 3: USC @ Texas (Ohio State @ TCU; LSU @ Auburn)
Week 4: Nebraska @ Michigan or Stanford @ Oregon (also wouldn't be shocked to see them go to one of those random places like ODU this week)
Week 5: Ohio St @ Penn St (UF @ MSU; Stanford @ ND; maybe Nebraska @ Purdue)
Week 6: FSU @ Miami (Texas-OU; Nebraska @ Wisconsin)
Week 7: JMU @ Villanova (MSU @ Penn St; UGA @ LSU)
Week 8: Michigan @ Michigan St (Ohio St @ Purdue; OU @ TCU; State @ LSU)
Week 9: Clemson @ FSU (Ga-Fl; Texas @ OSU; Oregon @ Zona)
Week 10: Stanford @ Washington (PSU @ Michigan; LSU @ Bama)
Week 11: Auburn @ UGA (Bedlam; Wisc @ PSU; OSU @ MSU; State @ Bama; FSU-ND)
Week 12: USC @ UCLA (MSU @ Nebraska; Miami @ VT)
Week 13: Michigan @ OSU (Auburn @ Bama; Notre Dame @ SC)


I only have 2 SEC games picked, so I'm sure I'm wrong. Just feel like they're are a ton of Big 10 games that will have a ton of hype around them.

I wanna say they have, but I don't know

don't they try to do games that are actually on campus somewhere?

2005 they went to Florida-UGA in JAX.


Also, just last year they opened up the season in ATL with FSU-Bama.
