Game Day in Lincoln?

[Paul in WI]

They are headed to Oregon\USC according to a Fowler tweet about an hour ago.

Good. I haven't watched Game Day since they were here in Lincoln the last time, and I don't miss it one bit. I think I know more about college football by NOT watching Game Day than I would learn by watching it.

Can't you feel your IQ dropping as you watch it? That's why I don't; I need all of the IQ that I have left.

Did he delete it since then?

One less distraction IMO

Doesn't gameday always go wherever the primetime game slot is? Kirk Herbstreit does both gameday and announcing for the primetime game with Musburger, and from my recollection the two are always in the same place. Nebraska/Missouri was already finalized as a 2:30pm kickoff, I don't think there was any chance we could get them.

No, it just worked out that way the last couple weeks.

I would be surprised if they would have two Game Day Shows in a row that had Missouri playing in it. They usually dont like having the same conference 2 weeks in a row let alone having one of the same teams 2 weeks in a row.

they went to back 2 back Bama games earlier in the season.

I just looked at next weeks schedule and as long as Mizzou holds on I think Gameday comes to Lincoln. The only other possible game is #1/2 Oregon @ USC (5-2)

If Gameday comes to Lincoln and Corso picks Nebraska, I'm driving to Memorial Stadium and kicking Corso in the giblets for jinx's us

Nebraska vs Missouri is the biggest game next weekend, USC is not even ranked it would make more sense to have it in Lincoln. I don't see why they they can't change the kickoff time based on what happened this weekend I think a game time switch is warranted. And having Game Day there for a night game would be HUGE for recruiting. Is there some kind of petition we can send to the Game Day crew to get this thing in Lincoln?!?!?!?!

The last couple weeks? I don't remember any time that wasn't the case, but then again I don't usually pay attention to Gameday that often. What do they do when Gameday and the primetime game are in different locations then? Does Kirk finish up that segment and quickly hop on a plane to wherever he's announcing that night?

Gameday is going to Oregon vs. USC

@Dan_Rubenstein: Gameday's at USC next week, but due to sanctions, it's just Chris Fowler, a handicam, and Bob Barker's old microphone

@cbfowler Gameday going to LA next Saturday for Ducks-Trojans.. Not sure how much passion to expect from Troy fans, but we r not writing 'em off.

They're just going to bring their curse to every #1 team until Boise State is #1. That's how ESPN wants it.

So much for their excuse for not coming to Lincoln for the UT game. Texas has two losses and its not gonna be a big game in the public eyes. Well guess wat, I can give two sh**s about USC/OU. USC sucks!

Correct. Bama-South Carolina was a 2:30 CBS game, for example. Recently ESPN has been trying to get the GameDay game on primetime but they don't always succeed. GameDay finishes at 11am CST and the primetime game starts at 7pm. A plane can get him anywhere in the country by 3pm.
