Gameday's Senior Coordinating Producer said they will be in Oxford Nov 1st and back for the Egg Bowl. Has any school hosted twice in a year? Much less 3 times? I really don't give a damn if they go every week because we are going to ruin their thanksgiving and that's all that matters.
He also said they would be in Tuscaloosa for our game if us and Bama take care of business. That would mean 25% of Gamedays would have featured OM or State.

They've been at FSU twice in a year, and maybe three times. And they're there this weekend. I don't know about other places but Tuscaloosa would be a good candidate as a two-timer too.

Can't really see that the attraction of Oxford is that huge though. Besides, they have to play Tennessee and LSU before Nov 1, and could lose both games. I think it's too early to commit on a November 1 date. I can see the Egg Bowl being a big attraction this year though, assuming we take care of things (mostly) before then. Losing to Bama might not be catastrophic as far as Egg Bowl draw would be.

Not TSUN related but no way in hell they do that. ESPN has to play to the masses much more than this, don't they? That would mean that GameDay would be at an SEC location for 7 weeks? Even if they do not have it anywhere else. That would be half of the season. I just doubt that they would risk pissing off the masses of the Big 10, Big 12 and Pac 12 for that. (even if it is deserving)

What about Tuscaloosa for State-Bama ?

I think that's too early too. We both could conceivably lose all our games before then. But they're running out of good teams to spotlight on GameDay, and will have at least one fewer after this coming weekend.

Had GameDay ever been to ND?

They've gone places twice in a year, but never three times. I could see them coming back for the Egg Bowl, but there are other opportunities available on that Saturday. They could go to Jacksonville for Florida/Georgia or even to Waco for a top 4 Baylor team (the fact that they're playing Kansas isn't interesting, but crappy opponents or even crappy home teams haven't stopped them before).

No one in the country cares as much about Gameday as OM. Ask an Alabama or Auburn fan and they don't give a ****. Their fascination with it is amusing and typical. I swear some of them would sacrifice a win if they had to just to host Gameday again.

The producer for Gameday said on Finebaum the Mon. after Gameday @ OM. That there was a possibility that they would be back at OM for the OM vs Aub game if both were undefeated and again for the Egg Bowl. He said that they would be returning to FSU for the third time this season for the FSU vs ND game.

Edited to add: Looks like @ FSU twice but FSU game three times.
