ESPN’s College GameDay has announced its broadcast destination for Week 7!
The popular Saturday morning pre-game show is rolling on after being on location in Gainesville, Florida for Week 6. The team was on-hand for the game between Auburn and Florida, and Florida will also be a part of the Week 7 matchup.
For Week 7, GameDay is staying in the SEC and heading to Baton Rouge, Louisiana for the showdown between Florida and Louisiana State. The show made the announcement on Twitter:

That means College GameDay is headed to an SEC location for three of the past four weeks. The only time GameDay deviated out of the southeast in that stretch was for Ohio State vs Nebraska in Lincoln. GameDay was live from Athens, Georgia on Sept. 21 for Notre Dame vs Georgia.
The two highest profiles B1G games are likely going to be Michigan State-Wisconsin and Penn State-Iowa, but the real surprise is that ESPN is passing on the Red River Rivalry between Oklahoma and Texas after both teams won in Week 6.
