ESPN GameDay Returns to Boise State for Saturday Matchup with Oregon State

ESPN will broadcast its College GameDay show live from the Boise State campus on Saturday, November 14. The program runs from 7 to 10 a.m. MST and precedes the Broncos' home game against Oregon State.

This marks the second time the network has staged its pregame show in Boise for a matchup between these two schools. The previous visit occurred in September 2010, when the third ranked Broncos hosted the 24th ranked Beavers and won 37-24.

The on-air team for the November 14 broadcast includes host Rece Davis, analysts Kirk Herbstreit, Desmond Howard, Pat McAfee, and Nick Saban. The network expects Pete Thamel, Stanford Steve Coughlin, and reporters Jen Lada and Jess Sims to be present on campus.

Boise State officials plan to release more logistical details later this week. Those specifics will identify the exact location of the College GameDay desk. The kickoff for the football game is set for 4 p.m. MT at Albertsons Stadium.

The Broncos enter the game with an 8-1 overall record and a 5-0 mark in conference play. They moved to the number 17 spot in the Associated Press Top 25 poll on Sunday afternoon, jumping three positions from the prior week. That climb follows a 64-38 road victory over Colorado State on Saturday.

That win secured the team's 29th consecutive winning season, the longest active streak in college football. The Broncos currently rank one spot higher than Oregon, the team that defeated them 34-27 in the season opener in Eugene.

The College Football Playoff committee released its first rankings of the season on November 3. Boise State sits at number 25 in that list. The committee automatically qualifies the highest ranked Group of 5 team for the 12 team playoff, a spot the Broncos currently hold.
