College GameDay Heads Back to SEC Country

This Saturday, ESPN’s College GameDay will be heading to Columbia, SC for the Georgia-South Carolina game that will be aired on ESPN that evening.

College GameDay Headed to South Carolina’s Horseshoe

College GameDay will head to Columbia, S.C., the site of Saturday’s SEC matchup of No. 5 Georgia at No. 6 South Carolina (7 p.m., ESPN). College GameDay, in its 26th year, will set up camp at the campus’ historic Horseshoe.

GameDay will be making its fifth all-time visit to the Gamecock’s campus, the most recent being October 9, 2010 when then-No. 19 South Carolina toppled then-No. 1 Alabama 35-21. The popular Saturday morning show’s first two visits to Columbia were when current ESPN analyst Lou Holtz held the head coaching reigns for South Carolina. In fact, the only time Lee Corso picked South Carolina with his famous headgear selection (9/11/04 vs. Georgia) – he pegged Holtz as a game changer. South Carolina went on to fall to the Bulldogs, 20-16.

College GameDay will air live at 9 a.m. on ESPNU and 10 a.m. on ESPN with host Chris Fowler, analysts Lee Corso, Kirk Herbstreit, Desmond Howard and David Pollack, and host/reporter Samantha Steele and Tom Rinaldi.

That’s it.
