An ESPN spokesman confirmed Sunday that its College GameDay Built by The Home Depot crew will visit Lincoln this weekend for Nebraska’s non-conference showdown against top-ranked USC.

 

 

 

College GameDay will originate from inside Memorial Stadium and will be live from Lincoln from 9 to 11 a.m. on Saturday. Chris Fowler hosts the show, alongside analysts Lee Corso, Kirk Herbstreit and Desmond Howard.

 

 

 

The appearance by College GameDay marks the sixth time the show has visited Lincoln, and the first time since 2001. College GameDay first came to Lincoln for 1994 games against UCLA and Colorado, then returned for Nebraska’s 1998 game with Washington.

 

 

 

In 2001, College GameDay was on hand for Nebraska’s games against Notre Dame and Oklahoma. More than 15,000 fans converged on Memorial Stadium for the College GameDay show against Notre Dame on Sept. 8, 2001, and College GameDay was televised in front of a packed Memorial Stadium just prior to kickoff against Oklahoma in October of 2001.

 

 

 

The visit from College GameDay makes Lincoln the unofficial capital of college football this weekend. In addition to Kirk, Chris and Coach Corso being on hand, ABC will televise the game nationally as part of its Saturday Night Football package, beginning at 7 p.m. CDT. Brent Musburger will handle the play-by-play duties, with Herbstreit providing analysis and Lisa Salters on the sidelines.

 

 

 

Numerous national media outlets are expected to be on hand to cover the game. Among them are writers from ESPN.com, CBSSportsline.com, SI.com, The Sporting News, New York Times, Washington Post and the Los Angeles Times.

Nooooooooooo...

 

Guess I'll watch my recording of the game on mute!

 

Did anyone notice last night at the LSU vs. V tech game, how Musburger said to the sideline reported who was at a tailgate with beer, "to save him and iced one" is it just me or should he not say that on National tv espically of his previous DUI in Lincoln
