Watching ESPN’s College GameDay on Saturday mornings has been a tradition for households around the country since 1987. Nearly every game gets a spotlight, but none more than the host of that week’s show. That honor goes to one of the most anticipated games of the week, and unfortunately, Clemson’s game against Georgia in week one didn’t make the cut.
The first and second locations for ESPN’s College GameDay have already been chosen. The options were slim for week zero, so College GameDay will head overseas for Florida State vs. Georgia Tech in Dublin, Ireland. Then, the popular program is heading to College Station to watch Texas A&M take on Notre Dame.
Be that as it may, there are 13 other chances for the Tigers to earn a spot on College GameDay. Brad Crawford of 247 Sports updated his predictions for every College Gameday location this season, and he thinks Clemson will be a part of one but not host.
Crawford predicts that College GameDay will choose Clemson at Florida State for its week six show. It would be the Seminoles’ second time on the program this season and the Tigers’ first. The ACC champion and even the hierarchy of the conference altogether could be decided by the game.
Crawford writes,
