Where is ‘College GameDay’ this week? Location, schedule, guest picker for Week 10 on ESPN
No. 8 Alabama is no stranger to ESPN's "College GameDay," which has traveled to the site of the biggest games in college football throughout the show's existence.
Oftentimes, the Crimson Tide finds itself in such matchups. Next week, it will yet again: Kirk Herbstreit, Lee Corso, Pat McAfee and other members of ESPN's flagship college football program will travel to Tuscaloosa for Alabama's Week 10 rivalry contest against No. 13 LSU at Bryant-Denny Stadium.

It's a game the Tide will need to win if it hopes to keep its national championship aspirations alive.
Coach Nick Saban's team will also look to avenge a 32-31 overtime loss last season to coach Brian Kelly's Tigers in Baton Rouge, Louisiana: a game that effectively eliminated Alabama from College Football Playoff consideration. Despite the defeat in that one-point OT thriller, the Tide has won 10 of the previous 12 matchups between the SEC West powers, including four of the past five games in Tuscaloosa.
