Country music fans will be happy to hear that College GameDay will have Russell Dickerson perform his hit single “Happen to Me” on the lawn in front of Ayres Hall for this week’s show.
Dickerson was born in Union City, Tennessee, and earned a bachelor’s degree from Belmont University in Nashville, Tennessee. His single “Happen to Me” was released on March 10 as the 2nd single from his 4th studio album.
GameDay announced Dickerson’s performance on Friday morning:
Tennessee legend Candace Parker will serve as the celebrity guest picker for this week’s show.
This is the first time since 2022 that College GameDay is hosting its show at the University of Tennessee. This time it will be leading up to the No. 15 Tennessee Volunteers taking on the No. 3 Georgia Bulldogs.
College football fans are in for a treat with this game as the high-flying Tennessee offense matches up with a Kirby Smart-led defense. Both teams come into the matchup 2-0 and looking to make a statement with a huge victory.
College GameDay will start at 9 a.m. ET and will wrap up at noon. Kickoff for Tennessee versus Georgia is set for 3:30 p.m. ET.
