== Barnstar! ==
'''''College GameDay''''' is an [[ESPN]] show covering [[college football]]. It first aired in 1987 with [[Tim Brando]] as host and [[Lee Corso]] and [[Beano Cook]] as analysts. Beginning as a more-or-less routine pre-game analysis of college football games, the show would undergo a radical transformation beginning in 1993 as the show began incorporating "live" broadcasts. The official name of the show is ''College GameDay built by [[The Home Depot]]''. There is a separate radio broadcast, ''[[ESPN Radio College GameDay]]'', on [[ESPN Radio]].

Today, the only original cast member remaining is [[Lee Corso]]. [[Chris Fowler]] serves as host and [[Kirk Herbstreit]], former [[Ohio State University|Ohio State]] [[quarterback]], serves as Corso's counterpart and [[foil (literature)|foil]]. Starting in 2008, [[Desmond Howard]] has been added to the cast in the show's introduction. [[Craig James (American football player)|Craig James]], currently with [[ESPN on ABC]], was on the show in the mid 1990s. Steve Cyphers is usually featured as a reporter. [[Nick Lachey]] joined the crew as a contributor during the 2005 season. Discussions are often held between the ''GameDay'' cast and studio analysts, including [[Lou Holtz]] and [[Mark May]].

==History==
In [[1993 in sports|1993]], ''GameDay'' began broadcasting live from outside a stadium hosting a game most Saturdays. The selected stadium is ''usually'' hosting one of the biggest matchups of the day, regardless of whether the game airs on an ESPN network. The first show "on the road" took place at [[South Bend, Indiana]] for the match up between #2 [[University of Notre Dame|Notre Dame]] and #1 [[Florida State University|FSU]]. The show takes on a festive [[tailgate party]] atmosphere, as thousands of fans gather behind the broadcast set, in view of the show's cameras. Many fans bring flags or hand-painted signs as well, and the school's [[cheerleader]]s and [[mascot]]s often join in the celebration. Crowds at GameDay tapings are known to be quite boisterous and very spirited.

The show's current intro and theme music is performed by [[country music]] duo [[Big & Rich]], who perform their [[2005 in music|2005]] [[Crossover (music)|crossover]] hit "[[Comin' to Your City (song)|Comin' to Your City]]" with revised lyrics that mention several top college teams and a guest appearance by [[Cowboy Troy]]. Additional music that has been used for the show include "[[Boom (P.O.D. song)|Boom]]" by the rock group [[P.O.D.]], which is heard going into the show's first commercial break.

[[Image:College Gameday 20051105 - Corso with Miami hat.jpg|thumb|right|250px|Corso picks Miami to upset Virginia Tech: note the head of [[Sebastian the Ibis]].]]Typically, the show will end with Lee Corso and Kirk Herbstreit issuing their predictions for that day's key matchups, finishing with the game to be played at the stadium hosting ''GameDay'', for which Corso signifies his prediction by donning the head piece of the [[mascot]] of his predicted winner. On occasion, when no suitably important game is available, it will originate instead from the ESPN studios. (Herbstreit, who in 2006 became a game [[color analyst|analyst]] for [[American Broadcasting Company|ABC]]'s ''[[Saturday Night Football]]'', is not allowed to make a pick for the game at which he is assigned due to parent company [[Walt Disney Company]]'s [[conflict of interest]] rules.)

''College GameDay'' was also a source for many arguments regarding the purported [[East Coast Bias]]: From 1993 until 2004, ''GameDay'' had only been to two regular season games on the entire West Coast (1998 at [[UCLA]] and 2000 at [[University of Oregon|Oregon]]). Given the popularity of the show and the media coverage it brought to the highlighted game, teams and fans of the West Coast teams felt that the show was only magnifying the perceived problems with excess media focus on East, South and Midwest games; ESPN attributed its lack of West Coast games to the need for a very early start time (07:00 AM PST) and an alleged lack of high quality matchups.<ref>As Mark Gross, coordinating producer of ''GameDay'', noted: "You're asking a thousand people to show up 12 hours before the game starts [. . . ] By no means are we ignoring (USC). We always discuss the possibility. But the time is something to think about." Patrick Kinmartin, [http://www.dailytrojan.com/media/storage/paper679/news/2004/04/08/Sports/What-Time.Is.It.Time.For.college.Gameday.To.Make.Its.Way.To.L.a-654886.shtml What time is it? Time for 'College GameDay' to make its way to L.A.], ''The Daily Trojan'', April 8, 2004.</ref> Since the beginning of the 2004 season the show has originated from West Coast/Pac-10 schools eight times, four times as many appearances as the previous ten years.

The show's current primary sponsor is [[The Home Depot]]. The secondary sponsor for many of the featured segments is [[Pontiac]].

The largest crowd ever to show up for the ''College GameDay'' telecast was on [[2008-08-30]] where nearly 20,000 packed Centennial Park in Atlanta, GA for the Alabama vs. Clemson matchup.

== Re;Adoption ==
With the addition of the ''[[Saturday Night Football]]'' game on ABC, ''GameDay'' has increasingly aired from that game. This could be done for many reasons including the fact [[Kirk Herbstreit]] is on both programs, thus making it easier for him. Another reason could be to give the ''Saturday Night Football'' game added exposure.


Hmm... ok. --[[User:YowuzaZXWolfie|<span style="color:MidnightBlue;">Yowuza</span>]] ZX[[User talk:YowuzaZXWolfie|<span style="color:MidnightBlue;"> Wolfie</span>]] 16:37, 7 October 2008 (UTC)
On [[2006-11-04]], [[Chris Fowler]] did not host the show for the first time in 16 years. [[Rece Davis]], host of ''[[College Football Final]]'' filled in for him. Fowler was on assignment, hosting [[ESPN]]'s coverage of the [[Breeders Cup]] from [[Churchill Downs]] in [[Louisville, Kentucky]].

Beginning with the show's 21st season (2007), ''College GameDay'' began broadcasting in [[high-definition television|high-definition]] on [[ESPN HD]].


I wanted to delete that page but don't know how. It's not necessary because there is another page just like it with almost the same name. I edited the other page too, and added all the missing relevant information from this page to that one. Check it out:
====20th Anniversary Memorable Moments====
During the [[2006]] season, as part of ''College GameDay'''s 20th year anniversary, they brought back some of the most unforgettable moments in the show's history. Some of the clips include:


http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chinese_Taipei_Ice_Hockey_League
*'''College GameDay Hits the Road''': On [[1993-11-13]], ''College GameDay'' hits the road, after six years in the studio, to see the #2 [[Notre Dame Fighting Irish]] take on the #1 [[Florida State Seminoles]] in "The Game of the Century". [[Lee Corso]] picks [[Florida State]] 31-30, but the end result was [[Notre Dame Fighting Irish football|Notre Dame]] 31–24.
*'''Herbstreit Joins GameDay''': On [[1996-08-31]], former [[Ohio State Buckeyes]] quarterback [[Kirk Herbstreit]] joined the ''College GameDay'' crew, to complete the cast that hasn't changed since.
*'''Corso's First Mascot Head''': On [[1996-10-05]], a tradition starts when [[Lee Corso]] picks [[Ohio State University|Ohio State]] to beat [[Penn State]] by sporting [[Brutus Buckeye]]'s mascot head. Since that day, every ''College GameDay'' has ended with Corso sporting the team's head gear, usually a mascot head or another headpiece when a team does not have a suited mascot, such as a Trojan-style helmet for USC or the signature winged helmet of Michigan. For the game between Harvard and Penn that College GameDay did in 2002, Corso dressed as [[Benjamin Franklin]].


So how do I just delete this page?

All game-time rankings are ESPN/USA Today (Coaches Poll). If a listing is blank, that week's show originated at the ESPN studios. The University of Florida and Ohio State University are tied for the most number of College Gamedays hostings (10 each), reported by the in-house ESPN GameDay research staff. Ohio State's record is 9-1; sole home loss to Texas. Florida's record is 6-4. Michigan (9) is third, while Alabama is fourth with 8 events. The Gators also have appeared in the on-site game ''(vs. another team)'' the most times (27). Ohio State (23) is second in on-site appearances. Florida vs Florida State has been the most-covered matchup, being covered seven times - four times in Gainesville, twice in Tallahassee, and once in the Sugar Bowl. As of current, only 12 schools (LSU, Ohio State, Boston College, Pittsburgh, Florida, Kentucky, Michigan State, North Carolina, Oklahoma, Oklahoma State, Texas, and UCLA) have hosted College GameDay for both basketball and football events.

*December 1992-January 1, 1993 (Sugar Bowl in New Orleans, Louisiana - ESPN Crew is live at the Sugar Bowl for the National Championship between #1-ranked Miami and #2-ranked Alabama. Alabama wins the game 34-13). However, there was NO College GameDay show ever broadcast from on-site (only SportsCenter cut-ins).

==Segments==
[[Image:Virginia Tech College Gameday at the field.jpg|thumb|right|250px|The GameDay crew gathers at the Home Depot field for a demonstration while in Blacksburg]]
*'''By the Numbers''': This segment appears twice in the show, when they examine various number of games by the numbers.
*'''GameChanger''': At the end of the show, Fowler, Corso and Herbstreit all pick a player that they think will have a game changing performance.
*'''Saturday Selections''': This is the most famous segment of ''College GameDay'', when Corso and Herbstreit make their predictions on the top games in [[college football]]. This also includes the game at which GameDay is present, when Lee Corso puts on the head of the mascot whose team he predicts to win that game.
*'''Speed Drills''': In this segment, Fowler throws about six or seven questions at Corso and Herbstreit to answer in 60 or 90 seconds.
*'''Spirit Meter''': This segment, which was taken from the [[College GameDay (basketball)|basketball version of ''College GameDay'']], looks to see how loud the crowd behind them really is. In its short existence on the football version, the loudest so far has been at [[Autzen Stadium]] in [[Eugene, OR]], set on [[2007-11-03]] at 127.2 dB.
*'''Trick of the Trade''': In this segment, [[Desmond Howard]] is joined by either [[Lee Corso]] or a player to break down a play that a team runs so well and how to stop it.
*'''Upset Special''': This is at the end of each hour when ether Corso or Herbstreit predict an upset to happen in a big game. Corso usually makes his at the end of the first hour and Herbstreit makes his before the ''Saturday Selections'', at the end of the second hour.
*'''What 2 Watch 4''': This appears twice throughout the program, when they run down all of the big games and examine them.
*'''Headgear''': This appears at the last minute of the show. Corso puts on the mascot's head of the team he thinks will win the current matchup.

Chinese Taipei International Hockey League

I wanted to delete that page but don't know how. It's not necessary because there is another page just like it with almost the same name. I edited the other page too, and added all the missing relevant information from this page to that one. Check it out:

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chinese_Taipei_Ice_Hockey_League

So how do I just delete this page?

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chinese_Taipei_Ice_Hockey_League_(CIHL)

It's totally irrelevant

I've redirected. You can't delete, I'm afraid; only administrators can. Garden. 19:23, 7 October 2008 (UTC)

Tut tut Possum. This isn't like you. Maybe it's the name change? You need to learn how to be win, instead of fail. -- how do you turn this on 19:16, 11 October 2008 (UTC)
