Where is ‘College GameDay’ for Week 5? Location, what to know for ESPN show
This week, ESPN’s “College GameDay” is returning to a well-known location in Tuscaloosa.
The show will broadcast from Tuscaloosa, Alabama, for the first time since Nick Saban, the legendary former coach of the Crimson Tide who won six national championships, retired and joined “College GameDay.” It’s no surprise that ESPN chose Tuscaloosa since this Saturday, the No. 1 Georgia Bulldogs will go head-to-head with the No. 4 Alabama Crimson Tide, a match anticipated to be one of the season’s highlights. Both squads are enjoying a break this week.
Currently, Georgia (3-0) holds the top spot in the US LBM Coaches Poll, with Alabama (3-0) sitting in fourth place.
