ESPN’s College GameDay is traveling to Salt Lake City on Saturday as No. 13 Utah plays host to No. 8 Oregon.

The GameDay crew—Rece Davis, Lee Corso, Kirk Herbstreit, Desmond Howard and Pat McAfee—visited Columbus, Ohio, this past week ahead of the highly anticipated Ohio StatePenn State matchup.

Utah–Oregon is another showdown that has fans excited. Both teams have a 6–1 overall record and 3–1 Pac-12 record.

Saturday’s guess picker hasn’t been announced yet, but it will likely be someone with Utah ties.

Utah is coming off a huge win at USC last Saturday. Utes kicker Cole Becker saved the day with a 38-yard field goal as time expired to lift the Utes to a 34–32 victory. The Utah crowd likely will be electric as the team faces another top conference opponent Saturday.

Oregon beat Washington State, 38–24, this past weekend to rebound from its sole loss of the season the previous week at rival Washington.
