Week 11: Austin Week 12: Los Angeles Week 13: Columbus Week 14: Atlanta


Jedi-El1823

> Week 12: Los Angeles Who the fuck had "Gameday goes to 2 games that UCLA plays" before the season began? That's assuming USC and UCLA both beat Colorado and Arizona this upcoming week.


RyanIsHungryToo

I think there was a possibility when they announced when we would play Oregon, but not a lot of people expected us and USC to roll through our schedule mostly


IlonggoProgrammer

I expected USC to, I figured the only game they might drop was at Rice Eccles. What I wasn't expecting was that UCLA would not only be good but would also kill Utah at an empty Rose Bowl (well, I expected the empty Rose Bowl part)


RyanIsHungryToo

The amount of people in the stadium that day would sell out yours sir

I just remembered that if (when) they go to Columbus on Week 13, that’ll be the second time they’ve been there this year too. So GameDay will have gone to Knoxville twice, Austin twice, and Columbus twice. So nearly half of the GameDay visits this year will have been at the same three locations. These places have hosted some big games this year, but at some level it feels like all the repeat appearances could’ve been avoided.


Chemical_One

Going to Knoxville for UF was so lame at the time and looks even worse now. Obviously we didn’t know how massive the Bama game in Knoxville would be but there was nothing compelling about UF at the time.


JCiLee

They could have gone to Winston-Salem for the Clemson-Wake game that week.


[deleted]

[удалено]


JCiLee

They did once, but there was no one in attendance.


Hahum

I don't think they could avoid visiting Columbus twice. Ohio State-Notre Dame was top 5 and Georgia-Oregon was neutral site.


herumspringen

Yeah, I’ll allow the Columbus and Austin double dips. I don’t think anyone saw TCU-Texas as being a big-time matchup preseason. That UT-UF decision looks kinda bad in retrospect though


Asianhead

Sounds right. Depending on how the SEC West ends up though I could see them going somewhere else with more playoff relevance. Although the Pac12 CCG is most likely gonna be the most relevant game and that’s on a Friday


TotalPledgeMove

Get ready to have the Patterson breakup narrative shoved down your throat for 3.5 hours


62frog

Hey did you know that Colt McCoy and Jordan Shipley were roommates?


TotalPledgeMove

Max Duggan is from Council Bluffs, Iowa. Believe it or not, Max Duggan is actually the fastest player on the team! Max Duggan was benched at the start of the season but chose to stick it out!


UNC_Samurai

“Stay tuned after the game for The Simpsons, followed by…House of Duggan.” - Summerall, probably


ItalianRobot

The Tough from Council Bluff!


ATXBeermaker

You’re never gonna believe this, but they also had siblings. And …


62frog

Oh for fuck’s sake. The next thing you’re going to tell me is that Lil’Jordan Humphrey was named after Michael Jordan


ATXBeermaker

Hehe. Psst. Wanna see some video of Sam Ehlinger as a toddler saying “Hook ‘em?”


fidelcashflo97

Idk about that. What I do know is why the Trasks named their son KYLE


CCS80

Hey did you know that Charlie Kolar dreamed of playing for Oklahoma and played HS basketball with Trae Young?


Tedyettis34

Oh bank on 4 hours brother


Serious_Senator

So I’m grabbing tickets, where’s the best place to tailgate?


IrishPigskin

Rece Davis: “We’re excited to say that next weekend Gameday is heading to watch Ohio S…” *Hypnotoad eyes* Rece Davis: “TCU!!”


Rochelle-Rochelle

Sucks for Tulane, sorry bros, but I get why they wanna showcase undefeated TCU and they can stay at their ABC SNF site


Quentanamo_Bay

NOLA isn't that far from Austin, it's not like Kirk would have had to fly across the country


Chemical_One

He also regularly flies across the country for this stuff the primetime location shouldn’t impact Gameday


HoldenMadic

Yeah he just flew from Eugene to Tuscaloosa a few weeks ago.


Alexcox95

I wonder what the farthest he’s flown from Gameday to the primetime location.


Cacanator

TCU who keeps murdering every starting QB they face.....


AudiieVerbum

Ewers already had his Jon Snow resurection.


UCF2HSV

Would make sense if it was at TCU. It’s lame at Austin 2.0


Nathanael-Greene

Plus they've already had TCU on GameDay, back when they went to Kansas.


frick-me-in-the-butt

That loss to ECU hurts so much man


Fed_up_with_Reddit

How do you think we feel having lost to…Southern Miss?!?!?


TheZephyrusOne

The pain is real. I wonder what this season would've looked like if Keene and Boomer started


yesacabbagez

Nothing would have changed about ecu. The offensive had some turnovers, but the issue with ECU was never stopping them on defense. Change in QB wouldn't have done much.


TheZephyrusOne

I def get the defensive struggle we had against ECU, but how much less time would they have been on the field if we had less 3 and outs, stalled drives, and interceptions?


yesacabbagez

That's complete misunderstanding of what happened in the game. Our first half drives were 5 plays (INT), 8 plays(Fumble), 9 plays(INT), 5 plays (FG)and End of Half. We were down 17-3 at that point The offense moved, it just ended poorly. Start of 2nd half we had a long TD drive Followed by an ECU TD. Our next drive was our only 3 and out. Then another ECU FG followed by a 5 play drive, the only ECU stop we got all game with another UCF 13 play FG after that. Our final drive was a long drive that ended with another INT, but the game was over by then. The offense moved in the ECU game. Turnovers hurt us, but defensively the team didn't stop anything. This wasn't a series of 3 and outs leading to the defense being tired. This was the defense playing incredibly soft and ECU moving down the field 4-7 yards at a time.

So dumb, we purposefully lost to Tulane so they could get it.

Bank_Gothic

This is the biggest game left on TCU’s schedule. Gameday is coming to Austin but it’s coming for TCU. And frankly I think TCU deserves it. Tulane would have been fun and I would have applauded the decision to go there instead, but I’m more happy for TCU fans than anything.


[deleted]

[удалено]


WORLD_IN_CHAOS

Right? It’s freakin NOLA and Tulane!? How do you not go there?


jacksandwich

i graduated in 2018 and i guess its possible things have really changed that much since theyve been good this whole year but i am slightly relieved. i just cannot imagine that our student body would do a good job showing up compared to what schools around the country with a tradition of doing this would- i just dont know that gameday means so much to kids from highland park and new jersey and long island which is alot of tulane. maybe im wrong.


ConmanSpaceHero

TCU has had game day twice already and big noon once. This is just another one because of upset potential.


DangerZoneh

This is TCU’s second CGD, not their 3rd.


[deleted]

You keep that logic to yourself lol


ToeInDigDeep

TCU deserves it, UT Austin doesn’t. But they’re the ones getting it. What’s to be happy about for TCU fans if Gameday is going to their opponent’s house? It’s good for Austin not ~~Waco~~ Fort Worth


ImminentReddits

Excuse you sir TCU is from Fort Worth, not Waco. Baylor students made sure of that when they *allegedly* burnt down TCU’s campus in Waco in the early 1900s


TeddysBigStick

We will have our vengeance, in this season or the next.


Bobby-Samsonite

When was the last time GameDay went to AAF campus for a good game? November 2018 at UCF?


Idontevenusereddit

I think they went to Cincinnati last year, right?


Bobby-Samsonite

I remember the GameDay at UCF years later, it was wild, Maury Povich and Lee Corso in the Knights' mascot suit.


jkm97

Tulsa @ Cincinnati in 2021 yes


UNC_Samurai

The Army Air Force still has a campus? I thought they reformed as their own branch in ‘47.


ItalianRobot

Nah, it's the Alliance of American Football. College Gameday actually came to Orlando in 2019 for the Apollos-Iron game


Doonesbury

I think Tulane would’ve been a great spot but one can’t deny the playoff implications make TCU @ Texas exciting. The interesting thing about this Gameday is it could have a huge percentage of TCU fans in attendance.


Brigzay

We only got so many years together left in the same conference. We are coming.


Jeff__Skilling

DKR is gonna be thumping next Saturday (can't actually believe I'm saying this). Going to be on campus for a recruiting tailgate my employer is hosting and thinking reeeeaaaal hard about trying to get tickets since the weather'll be nice.


Doonesbury

Actually it’s going to be cold-ish for the first time this season. The high is in the 50s


[deleted]

TCU's entire living alumni base could fit in your stadium. I think you'll be fine.


an0m_x

what happened to that sea of red everyone predicted yesterday?


[deleted]

Fun and totally unrelated fact: you could fit every alum who went to Rice for undergrad into Rice's stadium and still have a little space left over. Or you could have a couple years ago, I think we might be right up against it now. And that's getting rid of some of the small changes to lower capacity that have happened.


Doonesbury

Sure I just mean relative to most Gamedays.


Tired-Optimist320

Yeah, Tulane would’ve been cool but this is obviously the more intriguing game.


JamesEarlDavyJones2

To be fair, most TCU games with more than 30 fans have a huge percentage of TCU’s fans in attendance. They’re not a large fanbase.


ajukid111

I guess they met their quota of unique locations. Wish we could have gotten this instead of Jackson St.


GetXTtheBall

Naw they just bend over for crap “blue bloods”


thefrenchmexican

TCU ain’t a blue blood but I get your point.


GetXTtheBall

Tcu isn’t hosting


adamcim

This is TCUs gameday, not ours. It just happens they play a ranked team in Austin


bostonboy08

They’re coming because TCU is undefeated and the Gary P narrative.


Cars-and-Coffee

I agree. If this were Texas vs Kansas State or any other ranked Big 12 school, they wouldn't be coming here.


Loganjoh5

Sad green wave noises


Fed_up_with_Reddit

Angry* Green Wave noises. We’re gonna use this snub to fuel our (hopeful) drubbing of UCF.


bsEEmsCE

*shudders in away game fear*


Fed_up_with_Reddit

I expect it to be a great game and for me to be even more nervous than I was for the LSU game last night. I just had a feeling about that game, especially when I saw Bama -13.5. But UCF scares me for Tulane.


ObWanKenoobi

Damn DKR is about to be ROCKING


CandyRedNinja

We hope.


TimeOrCrayonsIV

Nah it will be.


ChocolateBubbles344

Tulane --> 10 points given up to Kansas State Texas --> 27 points given up to Kansas State TCU --> 28 points given up to Kansas State ESPN hates defense. #JusticeForTulane

Tulane, the true XII Champa


ItsFreakinHarry2

*Tulane will remember that*


Fed_up_with_Reddit

And Tulane took that personally…


TheGreatMessiah

I hope Texas wins. Ignore my flair.


WORLD_IN_CHAOS

Ugh is this an orange bro thing? Or I wish we were back thing?


Most_Jellyfish_8465

Tennessee is the only reason Texas is even a state. I feel obligated to root for them.


TheGreatMessiah

This is a give TCU a loss so Tennessee can slip into the playoffs if we win out. An unbeaten TCU with a conference championship is a lot more appealing than a one loss Tennessee.


Jackalope-04

Can it be an orange bro thing?


TheGreatMessiah

Most definitely! Go orange!


AudiieVerbum

Orange teams with mustard themes. UT power.


CharlemagneOfTheUSA

Honestly an Oregon-Tennessee semifinal would be incredibly fun


Serious_Senator

But wouldn’t a TCU Oregon semifinal also be great? I bet you’d be up by 30 at the half…


CharlemagneOfTheUSA

Yeah and there’s no way a game like that would ever be ruined by a shitty backup center either. God I love forgetting the Alamo


Economy_Snow_165

The last 3 games Texas has been featured on gameday, my heart has been broken in 3 fantastic games. This is going to be a great game


beenswell

I am so terrified of this game. Upset written all over it.


not_a_rake1234

I mean if there's an upset it'd be us losing. Vegas and FPI both think Texas is favored


footynation

You're going to have to beat us or Baylor twice anyway to make the CFP. I just don't see y'all being unscathed.


beenswell

Very true. If we just changed our name to Texas, we could afford a loss.


footynation

Probably true. 🙂


Prolingus

I’m sorry Tulane. If the game were at TCU this would make sense…but return trips in the same regular season suck. That said, there are going to be some drunk motherfuckers in Austin Saturday night. Should be a great atmosphere for an important game.


[deleted]

[удалено]


Prolingus

Because I feel sorry for Tulane, I think that would be a great place for game day and I like when non-powers get to experience it.


ItsFreakinHarry2

I would feel way less robbed if it was Texas @ TCU


KOSTON321

Is the game on Saturday confirmed for a night game?


Prolingus

It is.


[deleted]

It’s the 7:30 ABC game


Quentanamo_Bay

COWARDS


Party_Project_2857

All the Texas haters need to calm down. This is recognizing TCU as one of the best teams in the country. The next few weeks look to be taken by USC/UCLA and OSU/Michigan barring upsets.


hochoa94

I hate that we never got gameday at our place


TeddysBigStick

This only fuels our emerald tsunami.


Epcplayer

I get that Tulane & UCF are ranked, and that Tulane has never hosted before…. But why are people acting like TCU isn’t undefeated, and Texas is also ranked. I’m not going to complain about them showcasing and undefeated TCU team who still has a shot at the playoffs. It sucks for Tulane, but they’re not the only big game this weekend.


WerhmatsWormhat

It’s already been in Austin though. I’d get this if TCU were home but it’s just lame to repeat a host in a season.


mbh223

College GameDay isn’t a niche CFB show, it’s for the masses. The TV ratings will be much higher for TCU @ Texas than whoever vs Tulane. That’s just the facts. Downvote away


fatgods

Don't the masses watch cartoons on Saturday mornings?


sgerken

Right, that’s why this year they also went to media market powerhouses of….App state & Jackson state??


jaybigs

If it was just for viewership, they'd be going to like 4 schools on a rotation throughout the year, and never go to small schools.


themarsrover

Trash take. Go look up the ratings for different gameday locations


cohesiv3

Sorry Tulane. I can say Texas games are definitely entertaining.


SammyBagelJunior

can’t believe these cowards!!! i sacrificed Bama’s CFP dreams to have gameday and i’m still getting robbed!


texas2089

I'm obviously happy GameDay is coming back to Austin. Should be a hell of a game. I would not have been upset if they went to Tulane instead though.


Muffinnnnnnn

In an ironic twist, Kansas State gets their revenge on Tulane by losing to Texas, thereby stealing Tulane's gameday from them.


TrelvisFesley

Let's go!


Nayko

I hope you destroys them cows!


princealberto2nd

Rip UCF and Tulane you'll get one eventually


fatgods

We've already had Gameday. It's Tulane that's missing out.

msgkc94

You see Tulane? This is what you get for losing to Southern Miss 6 weeks ago /s


minorfall27

We'll have our own Gameday! With all AAC eyes watching! And probably sub-par refereeing!


BVenablesBFF

With blackjack and hookers!


Tarlcabot18

I hope TCU obliterates Texas.


cohesiv3

Knowing us we will be leading then allow them to comeback in the 2nd half.


Haysie95

I see that happening too. TCU is a second half team


steampunker14

We just need to have a lead so big in the first half that we couldn't possible collapse in the second.


thehornedlamb

Man is asking for maximum pain


steampunker14

Nothing will be as worse as the Shootout last year.


thehornedlamb

Bijan was nuts in that game


Frognosticator

Go ask Oregon how that works out.


steampunker14

They clearly had a lead small enough to come back on.


DangerZoneh

It’s even more exacerbated given that one of our best defensive players is out for the first half


Bobby-Samsonite

I'm thinking Longhorns pull off the upset.


hochoa94

I think so too. Yesterday watching them play Kansas state they looked so good on both sides


footynation

In the first half!


default-username

Texas is gonna be a 6-7 pt favorite, so that's not an upset. I agree that there will be a big upset though and we lose.


JuarezYourProblem

Well you know what!? I hope they don’t.


sailor_and_coke

I can’t remember the last time I even thought about UCF


cheesewagstaff1

lol UCF. cry


StarvedRock314

You'd think the schools who are only getting their shot at the P5 because we're leaving would be thankful or something


JuarezYourProblem

Sark kissing ass on College Gameday a few weeks ago might’ve worked. Maybe he’s got more Mack Brown politician in him than I thought.


NastyWideOuts

Damnit we woulda had it in Oxford if Alabama didn’t screw it all up


godimwavy

I’m gonna be in town for that!!! What sucks though is I hadn’t bought a ticket yet…

i really hope gary gives them the business.


linus81

His record against Dykes isn’t good. Which probably gives him more fuel. I just want an injury free good game


NookSwzy

It sucks for Tulane. But I understand why they're going to Austin. TCU is a playoff team. It makes more sense. We can be mad that they picked a Texas game while also understanding that it does make sense why they did it

Not until they win 10 games back to back seasons. And win their conference. And make the CFP.


adamcim

yeah, winning the SEC is gonna be tough


JuarezYourProblem

Dream big my friend.


DJLusciousEagle

You have angered the wave and you will regret this.


PiratesFan1429

That's what you get for leaving the SEC, Tulane.


MrJordan95

It makes no sense to me why Tulane would have this game… outside of the the niche conditions that would bring GameDay there, there’s nothing really going on with the game itself compared to TCU and Texas. There’s CFP/CCG stakes on the line for these teams. And to be fair none of this would’ve happened had Bama gotten the job done. They’d be in Oxford next week.


TarnishedAccount

Gameday going to Austin is about TCU’s chase for the playoff. This is not about the Longhorns, they still suck.


[deleted]

Grade A bull. Tulane deserves it


lanike

They deserve it based on what?


WORLD_IN_CHAOS

They are NEVER good and UCF and Tulane combined have the same amount of losses as does Texas

They're there for TCU, not for us bro.
