Special Edition of ESPN's College GameDay is Coming to Blacksburg on Labor Day

Rece Davis, Desmond Howard and David Pollack will be onsite for coverage of Virginia Tech–Ohio State.

It's cool Lee, you can come back to Blacksburg, lightning never strikes a parked car twice.

ESPN College GameDay, the Four Letter's long running, traveling college football pregame show, will open up for the second straight season in Fort Worth, Texas for the Alabama–Wisconsin game. Virginia Tech and ESPN Sr. Director of PR, Keri Potts tweeted that GameDay would travel to Blacksburg on Labor Day for Virginia Tech's nighttime showdown against Ohio State.

Both Virginia Tech and ESPN provided more specific details after the initial tweets.

According to the ESPN release, ESPN will broadcast an hour-long pregame show, and this will not be a traditional GameDay broadcast.

Davis, Howard and Pollack will make an additional stop in Blacksburg, Va., for College Football Countdown on Monday, Sept. 7, in advance of a special edition of ESPN College Football presented by Capital One telecast featuring Virginia Tech vs. defending National Champions and No. 1 Ohio State at 8 p.m. The trio will be onsite for pre-game, halftime and post-game reporting, beginning at 7 p.m.

Potts provided further clarification.

A release from the Virginia Tech athletic department indicated ESPN will broadcast a special Monday edition of its College GameDay pregame show live from the Virginia Tech campus on September 7.

According to Tech, this will be the seventh time the GameDay crew will be in Blacksburg. The last visit happened September 1, 2007 for Tech's season-opening game against East Carolina. The other times include twice in 1999 and 2005, and a single visit in 2000.

At ACC Kickoff, Frank Beamer said the Hokies–Buckeyes matchup is the, "most anticipated game ever".

I can imagine no more rewarding a career. And any man who may be asked in this century what he did to make his life worthwhile, I think can respond with a good deal of pride and satisfaction:
“I served in the United States Navy"
