“College GameDay” will be in the Midwest for a Week 9 matchup between the No. 13 Indiana Hoosiers and the Washington Huskies. This is the second time ever in “College GameDay” history that the show will take place in Bloomington, Indiana.
The Hoosiers are off to a 7-0 start under first-year head coach Curt Cignetti, a huge upgrade over their pitiful 3-9 record a season ago. In all fairness, Indiana does not have a marquee win on their resume quite yet, but that hasn’t mattered, since they’ve absolutely dominated every team they’ve played. Their closest contest was a 14-point victory over Maryland, but no other games have been within even two possessions.
Washington, on the other hand, is 2-2 in conference play less than a year after reaching the College Football Playoff championship game. However, they’ve had a week of rest since being defeated handily by Iowa, 40-16. They’ve been preparing for this game for quite some time, and it’s sure to be a good one. After all, that’s part of the reason why “College GameDay” picked Bloomington this week.

The Buckeyes won that game 49-21.
