ESPN's College GameDay Returns to South Bend for Notre Dame-Miami Showdown

ESPN's flagship college football pregame show College GameDay will broadcast from South Bend, Indiana, ahead of the Notre Dame Fighting Irish hosting the Miami Hurricanes. The network announced the location selection for the November 1 matchup at Notre Dame Stadium.

The decision keeps the traveling show in Indiana for a high-profile non-conference clash between two historic programs. Notre Dame and Miami have met 11 times previously, with the Fighting Irish holding a 6-5 series advantage. Their most recent meeting came in 2017, a 41-8 Notre Dame victory in South Bend.

College GameDay typically sets up on campus at the site of the week's most anticipated game. The show's presence brings national spotlight to the host university and surrounding community throughout its Saturday morning broadcast.
