College GameDay, SEC Nation guide for Kentucky fans this weekend
If you’re a member of the Big Blue Nation and intend to participate in the various pregame activities planned this weekend down in Athens, we’ve got some useful information for you.
A lot is happening down on the Georgia campus this weekend, starting on Friday with The Paul Finebaum Show and continuing throughout Saturday morning with the likes of College GameDay, SEC Nation, and Marty & McGee. The city of Athens is going to be loaded with non-stop football talk over the next couple of days and we’re here to help you navigate through it all.
Let’s start with Mr. Pawwwwl Finebaum, who will host his show during its regularly scheduled time of 3-7 p.m. EST on Friday afternoon. Just like it was last weekend in Lexington, fans will be allowed to attend The Paul Finebaum Show as it is airing. Finebaum’s show won’t be located at the Myers Quad, where College GameDay will be, so keep that in mind. If you wish to watch Finebaum live and in person, you’ll have to do so on the lawn outside of the Special Collections Library.
For those of you that have no idea what I’m talking about (myself included), the Special Collections Library is not all that far from Myers Quad–a 0.6-mile walk if you ask Google Maps.
Now for the fun stuff. Saturday will include the college football pregame trifecta of College GameDay, SEC Nation, and Marty & McGee. Only College GameDay will be held at Myers Quad though, while the other two shows will be held at the Special Collections Library.
Fans are encouraged to attend the live events (BRING A SIGN!), which will begin with Marty & McGee at 9 a.m. EST. College GameDay and SEC Nation will run simultaneously from 10 a.m.-12 p.m. EST on ESPN and the SEC Network, respectively. Fans are permitted to enter the pit area beginning in Myers Quad at 5:30 a.m. for College GameDay and 7 a.m. for Marty & McGee/SEC Nation.
Masks will not be required during these shows. Kickoff between No. 11 Kentucky and No. 1 Georgia is scheduled for Saturday at 3:30 p.m. EST on CBS.
