The Week 11 College GameDay Location: Baton Rouge

ESPN's College GameDay has revealed the Week 11 location with the crew heading to town for the LSU versus Alabama matchup.

A day that will have Nick Saban make a return to Baton Rouge without being on the sidelines, he'll prepare to be surrounded by a pair of programs he was at the helm of during his coaching career.

Now, the stage is set. Saban and Co. will amplify the pivotal Week 11 matchup with the GameDay crew slated to be in Baton Rouge.

The Return: Nick Saban

Saban will make a return to Baton Rouge next weekend with the GameDay squad hopping on a flight to make their way to Louisiana.

For Kelly, he was asked earlier in the week about the "old Alabama" coming back to form after taking down Missouri 34-0 in Week 9.

“What’s that old self look like? What, is Nick Saban back? Nick’s on the sideline? He’s everywhere. GameDay, he’s at GameDay too. Did you know that? Oh, my God,” Kelly said on Tuesday. “I’m not sure what the old Alabama (is). They’ve got great personnel. They’re well coached. You know, we certainly know that it’s going to be a great challenge, but that’s the SEC every week. It’s going to be the same. I don’t know that there is a sense that our team can’t, if they’re playing to their best when their best is needed, that they can’t compete and play with anybody.”

LSU was idle in Week 10 after a loss to Texas A&M with the program placing a focus on a complete performance with complementary football.

“We certainly have to play four quarters,” Kelly said. “And I know that they’re anxious and excited about the opportunity to play at Tiger Stadium and look, and I think I said this in the presser after, you know, you have a 24 hour rule. But it’s easier to have that after a win.

“The 24 hours after a loss, (it) sticks around a lot longer, and these guys are going to want to play and they can’t wait to play Alabama.”
