About ESPN GameDay in Athens, I've heard...

that Chris Fowler & Herbstreit will probably call the game. Will find that out, soon.
Second, that GameDay will probably have TWO separate locations: 1) Myers Quadrangle 2) Inside Sanford Stadium at SW corner (the side where the Uga Mascot Mausoleums are located) next to the bridge.
Don't know how the logistics will operate with two (2) GameDay locations (have they ever done this before?).
This game is drumming up lots of attention...national press from all over are coming. Should be fun for fans that are going to be there. Enjoy.

My body is ready. Please Jesus make them flex this to a night game.

Are they actually going to stick with the 12pm kickoff? Indiana-Penn State is ABC night game

Chris and Kirk usually call the night game on ABC. Them calling a day game would be…weird.

Yes, as far as I know. The picking order rights between the networks is set in stone and they've all picked their peppers. So, yeah...high noon for now.

It is out of kilter for them to call a game this early....possible scenario is they call UGA/UA, then catch a private jet out of Athens to wherever their 7pm/8pm game would be.
I dunno.

Is it too late for cbs to flex their night game for this?
Posted on 9/26/21 at 5:54 pm to geauxnavybeatbama
Probably but I sure wish that they could
Posted on 9/26/21 at 5:54 pm to JetDawg
Herbstreit and Fowler have called noon games before. It's not common but it does happen
Posted on 9/26/21 at 5:56 pm to geauxnavybeatbama
No such thing for cbs they picked their one night game already

Generally, yes. That would have been decided yesterday.

Glad it isn't coming to Alabama this week. Gameday is a distraction for the home team.

It’s impossible for Herbstreit to prepare for Gameday, Arkansas-Georgia, and then a prime time game in only 5 days.

Have you guys ever watched college football?
-Gameday always does an in stadium location when they're at a 11am kickoff. Notably the Texas-OU game several times over the past decade or so.
-Fowler and Kirk call a couple of non primetime games every season.
-The game can't be on ABC due to contractual issues. Stop complaining about Penn State and Indiana.

One might be ESPN Radio Gameday?
I know in the past when OU at home had ESPN Gameday that there were two locations with one being for ESPN Radio.

They literally just did this yesterday for the Wisco- ND game.

The first two hours of the show will be outside, and then they'll move inside for the last hour.
There will be some sad puff piece that takes them to break to give them more time to get the on-air personalities moved inside.
