College GameDay Week 9 Location Odds: Possible Destinations For Week 9

Fact Checked by Nate Hamilton

A week after taking in the hoopla surrounding Saturday’s 32-31 thriller between Oregon and Ohio State in Eugene, it seems like Rece Davis and the College GameDay team are headed back to Texas. That’s where you’ll find ESPN’s college football pregame show on Saturday morning, as GameDay returns to Austin for the first time since No. 12, 2022, for this week’s Texas-Georgia SEC showdown. The trip to Darrell K. Royal-Texas Memorial Stadium marks the 10th trip to the capital city of the Lone Star State in the show’s history, dating back to Oct. 23, 1999 — when they saw No. 18 Texas upset third ranked Nebraska, 24-20. 

Since then, GameDay has come to Austin in 2003 (for Texas-Kansas State), 2005 (for Texas-Texas Tech), 2006 (for Texas-Ohio State), 2008 (for Texas-Missouri), 2009 (for Texas-Texas Tech), 2019 (for Texas-LSU), 2022 (for Texas-Alabama and Texas-TCU) and this weekend’s visit.

Where Will College GameDay Go Next?

Our odds-on favorite to land GameDay come late October is the annual clash between Navy and Notre Dame, taking place this year at MetLife Stadium due to the Midshipmen having a stadium that’s too small to accommodate the Fighting Irish. That yearly rivalry game is our top choice for GameDay, at -130, ranking well ahead of the Big Ten clash of the titans between Washington and Indiana in Bloomington and the Seminole State clash between FSU and Miami, with both of those contests listed at +1100.  

Throw in longshots in Kansas vs. Kansas State, Colorado vs. Cincinnati and SMU vs. Duke, all of which are listed at +2500, and you have the full list of GameDay possibilities for Week 9. 

None of them hold a candle to the clash of the surging teams, as Navy looks to snap Notre Dame’s six-game winning streak in the series dating back to 2016, when the Mids’ pulled off a 28-27 victory in Jacksonville over their rivals from South Bend.
