College GameDay Heading to Provo for Notre Dame Football at BYU
ESPN’s College GameDay will be in Provo next Saturday for Notre Dame’s trip to BYU. The show announced its destination Saturday night, shortly after the Irish finished off a 58-7 win over Stanford.
No. 3 Notre Dame (6-0) will face No. 8 BYU (5-0), which beat Iowa State 24-10 on Friday night. GameDay airs from 9 a.m. to noon ET on October 17, and BYU says the exact spot on campus will be announced later. Kickoff is set for 7:30 p.m. ET on ABC.
This will be only the second time GameDay has broadcast from Provo. The first visit came on October 24, 2009, when TCU beat BYU 38-7. The Cougars are 0-4 all-time in games featured on the show.
Notre Dame’s history with GameDay goes back much further. The show’s first road broadcast was in South Bend before the 1993 game against Florida State, and the Irish have been a regular since. You can find Notre Dame’s full College GameDay history here.
Notre Dame leads the all-time series with BYU 7-2 and won the most recent meeting 28-20 in Las Vegas in 2022. The last time the Irish played in Provo was the 2004 season opener, a 20-17 BYU win.
