Where is ‘College GameDay’ for Week 5? Location, what to know for ESPN show

ESPN’s “College GameDay” is marking the return of a familiar face in Tuscaloosa.

The show announced it will be heading to Tuscaloosa, Alabama, for the first time since former coach Nick Saban, who led the Crimson Tide program to six national championships, retired and joined “College GameDay.” It’s not a surprise ESPN picked Tuscaloosa; on Saturday night, No. 1 Georgia and No. 4 Alabama will face off in what should be one of the biggest games of the year. Both teams will be coming off of a bye week.

Georgia (3-0) is currently sitting at No. 1 in the US LBM Coaches Poll, while Alabama (3-0) is fourth.
