ESPN COLLEGE GAMEDAY Built by The Home Depot - college football's longest-running and most-celebrated pregame show - will make a first-time stop in Louisville, Ky., on Saturday, Sept. 17, in advance of No. 2 Florida State at No. 10 Louisville (ABC, noon ET). The GameDay set will be located outside the Northeast corner of Papa John's Cardinal Stadium. THE WEEKLY SHOW airs from 9 a.m.-noon on ESPN, and this week, the first two hours will be staged from the outside of the stadium, moving inside for the final hour.
Lee Corso, a graduate of Florida State, is returning to Louisville, where he coached from 1969-72. He held a 28-11-3 mark in his four years, including a 9-1 record in his final year.
The six-time Emmy Award-winning show is hosted by Rece Davis, who is joined by analysts Corso, Kirk Herbstreit, Desmond Howard and David Pollack, as well as contributors Chris 'The Bear' Fallica, Jen Lada, Samantha Ponder, Tom Rinaldi, George Whitfield and Gene Wojciechowski.
Chris Fowler, Herbstreit and Ponder will stay on site to call the Louisville-Florida State game. The Saturday Night Football telecast (8 p.m., ABC) will welcome the crew of Joe Tessitore, Todd Blackledge and Holly Rowe.
College Football Live will air from the GameDay set on Friday with Ponder, Howard and Pollack (1:30 p.m., ESPN). SportsCenter's Sara Walsh and Michael Eaves will also contribute from site throughout the weekend.
