Penn State hosts ESPN's College GameDay, FOX's Big Noon Kickoff vs. Ohio State. Where will they settle?

ESPN's College GameDay is indeed returning to Penn State's city.

College football's flagship pregame show announced Sunday that it is returning to University Park for the Penn State-Ohio State game, which is expected to be a top-five game. It will be the first time GameDay has traveled to Happy Valley since Penn State vs. Auburn in 2021.

The Nittany Lions were on the GameDay set in 2023 at Ohio State. A total of 24 times a Penn State game was shown on GameDay. It will be the 13th time a game between Penn State and Ohio State has been shown, the most frequent matchup in the show's official history.

Penn State will also host FOX's Big Noon Kickoff show, marking the first time both crews will be in University Park at the same time. It's the fourth time BNK has been to Happy Valley and the second time this season.

GameDay will air from 9:00 a.m. to 11:30 a.m. from Gate C of the Bryce Jordan Center. For the final half hour of the show, the set moves to Beaver Stadium.

The Big Noon Kickoff begins its day from 10:00 a.m. to 11:30 a.m. at Gate B of the BJC and ends at Gate B concourse at Beaver Stadium.

Penn State and Ohio State kick off Saturday at noon. FOX hosts the show with lead commentators Gus Johnson and Joel Klatt. The Nittany Lions are 7-0 while the Buckeyes are 6-1.
