They’re comin’ to your (Happy) Valley!
After holding off to see Penn State polish off Iowa Saturday night, ESPN announced College GameDay is heading to State College next Saturday.
Penn State’s whiteout game will get the College GameDay treatment next Saturday. The home game in primetime against Michigan will be the main attraction for ESPN’s traveling pregame show.
