ESPN’s College GameDay Covered by State Farm makes its long-awaited return to campus on Saturday, Jan. 29 at the University of Kansas for its first road show since the 2020 season. The one-hour GameDay, hosted by Rece Davis, along with analysts Jay Bilas, LaPhonso Ellis and Seth Greenberg, will be live ahead of the Big 12/SEC Challenge matchup between the No. 12 Kentucky Wildcats and No. 7 Jayhawks (6 p.m. ET, ESPN).

The one-hour pregame show will begin at 11 a.m. on Jan. 29 inside Allen Fieldhouse in Lawrence, Kan., Gameday’s ninth visit to the iconic arena and the fourth time the show will originate from a Kentucky-Kansas matchup. Kansas holds a 2-1 advantage in the past GameDay meetings.

College GameDay tipped off its season last week and will continue in studio this Saturday, Jan. 22, before traveling to Kansas and other campus sites throughout the remainder of the 2021-22 season. Future campus sites will be determined week-to-week and announced one week prior to each show.
