ESPN is bringing College GameDay to Boise.
Boise State Athletics confirmed the location on social media. The set will be built on DeChevrieux Field. This area sits behind Albertsons Stadium. It is also on the edge of the ExtraMile Arena parking lot.
The Broncos play Oregon State this weekend. Boise State enters the game with one loss on the season. The team is trying to secure a spot in the College Football Playoff. They are doing so without star player Ashton Jeanty.
The Broncos won their last two games. They used a backup quarterback for both victories. These wins kept their playoff hopes alive. The program is currently the highest ranked non-power team. This status guarantees them a spot if they finish with the best record among that group.
Oregon State enters the matchup with a 5-4 record. The Beavers have lost their last two games. Their recent struggles make a playoff appearance unlikely. They are fighting for positioning in the rankings despite the losses.
Fans have discussed the possibility of a Boise stop for weeks. Many asked ESPN to consider the game due to the high stakes. The announcement settled the speculation. The show will air in the early morning before the kickoff.
The event is expected to draw a large crowd. Local festivities will take place around the stadium. The broadcast will run until the game ends. Boise State will host the Beavers at Albertsons Stadium after the show concludes.
