ESPN’s uber-popular College GameDay traveling pregame show heads West in Week 10 for a Big 12 matchup between the 21st-ranked Cincinnati Bearcats and the Utah Utes.
Utah is 6-2 this season and 3-2 in Big 12 play, with the Utes coming off a 53-7 victory at Colorado in Week 9. Cincinnati is 7-1 overall and 5-0 in league play – having won 7 straight including a 41-20 victory against Baylor in Week 9.
Utah is featured on College GameDay for the 8th time. The show previously visited for Utes games against Oregon in 2023, Washington in 2016, Cal in 2015, TCU in 2010 and BYU in 2004. In addition to the 5 home games, the show visited for the Utah-TCU game in Fort Worth during 2009, as well as both of the Utes’ trips to the Rose Bowl Game against Ohio State (2021) and Penn State (2022). Utah is 2-5 in those appearances, winning the 2015 game against Cal and the 2004 game against BYU.
Cincinnati appears on College GameDay for the third time in the show’s history. The Bearcats hosted GameDay for the Tulsa game in 2023, and as the visitor in Orlando when Cincinnati played at UCF in 2018. Cincinnati won its home GameDay appearance against Tulsa and lost at UCF.
