College GameDay heads to Tuscaloosa for Georgia-Alabama
Georgia is going to be on a national stage next weekend. Not only will the Bulldogs play in primetime on ABC at 7:30 p.m. ET but they’ll also be featured on ESPN’s College GameDay as the pregame show heads to Tuscaloosa for the top-5 matchup against Alabama.
For UGA, it’s the 37th all-time appearance on the show, sixth-most of any school. It hasn’t always been a blessing for the Bulldogs though, coming in with a 17-19 (.472) record. Georgia-Alabama has also been a frequent matchup with its 11 coming in at No. 2 with one fewer appearance than Ohio State-Penn State and Alabama-LSU.
So far this season games the show has gone to have been Florida State-Georgia Tech, Notre Dame-Texas A&M, Texas-Michigan and LSU-South Carolina. This weekend they are at Tennessee-Oklahoma as Lee Corso looks to keep his perfect headgear picks up on the year.
