ESPN mulls how to make 'GameDay' work during pandemic

For millions of college football fans, couch potato Saturdays begin with ESPN's “College GameDay."

The covid-19 pandemic has put this season in peril, but if it can be salvaged, so too will the sport's most popular pregame show.

“If there is college football there will be ‘College GameDay.’ Period," said ESPN's Lee Fitting, who oversees all the network's college studio shows and remote programs.

“GameDay” just won't look like the traveling circus fans have grown accustomed to over almost three decades, broadcasting from the site of a big game in front of thousands of pumped-up, signing-waving fans.
