In case there were any doubts, Ohio State and Michigan's showdown in Ann Arbor next week is the destination of choice for top college football TV programs.
ESPN's College GameDay announced on-air Saturday that it will be heading to Michigan's campus for the likely top-three battle and game to decide the Big Ten's East Division.
It's the third time this season that College GameDay will be in attendance for an Ohio State game. The show came to South Bend, Ind. prior to the Buckeyes' last-second 17-14 comeback win over Notre Dame on Sept. 23.
The Horseshoe then got to host College GameDay on Oct. 21 when Ohio State met Penn State in a top-10 matchup. The Buckeyes got the best of the Nittany Lions 20-12 that day, with C.J. Stroud serving as guest picker prior to the contest.
Ohio State is 40-18 all-time when GameDay is on campus for one of its games. The team's latest victory was the above-mentioned 20-12 win over Notre Dame in Week 8, and its most recent defeat was a 42-41 loss to Georgia in the 2022 CFP semifinals.
It also will mark the third consecutive meeting between Ohio State and Michigan that GameDay will have been on hand for, with the program on campus for the Wolverines' victories in 2021 and 2022.
