ESPN’s ‘College GameDay’ Heading to Notre Dame vs. Ohio State in Week 4

The long-running show will return to the site of its first on-campus broadcast.

As the 2023 college football season nears its fourth week, College GameDay is taking it back where it all began.

ESPN’s weekly pregame show will originate from South Bend, Ind. on Sept. 23, the network announced Saturday evening. No. 9 Notre Dame hosts No. 6 Ohio State next week for the first time in 27 years.

The Fighting Irish were the first program to host College GameDay when it began visiting campuses regularly, ahead of Notre Dame's much-hyped 1993 showdown with Florida State. This will be the Fighting Irish's 11th time hosting the program, tied with the Seminoles, Oregon and Tennessee for the sixth-most in history.
