ESPN's "College GameDay" is heading to Bloomington, Indiana, for only the third time on Saturday, Oct. 31.

No. 4 Indiana faces unranked Minnesota in Week 9, a week without many obvious choices for ESPN's popular college football pregame show.

The Hoosiers will likely need a better offensive performance against the Golden Gophers than they did last week in their 13-6 overtime win at Michigan. Quarterback Josh Hoover, playing through an injury to his throwing arm, was held to 8-of-18 passing for 81 yards with an interception in the win.

Minnesota is coming off a 13-10 win over then-No. 14 Iowa on Oct. 24 and already has a win over the Wolverines this season.

"College GameDay" will air from 9 a.m. ET to noon ET on Saturday, Oct. 31, from Indiana's campus in Bloomington, Indiana.

The Hoosiers are 1-1 in their two prior times hosting the show, losing 49-21 to Ohio State in 2017 and beating Washington 31-17 in 2024. Indiana is 5-2 all time when featured on the show, including 4-0 in 2025, all of which occurred either on the road or in the College Football Playoff.

Unlike in Week 9, ESPN has myriad options to choose from in Week 10, including Utah-BYU in Salt Lake City; Alabama-LSU in Baton Rouge, Louisiana; or Miami at No. 6 Notre Dame in South Bend, Indiana.

The Week 9 episode of "College GameDay" will air live on ESPN. Streaming options for the program include the ESPN app and Fubo, which offers a free trial to potential subscribers.
