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. Lee Corso's signature selection at the end of the show could end up being done from his home in central Florida, with the 84-year-old former coach donning a baseball cap instead of a mascot head.
