Predicting Every College GameDay Location for the 2025 Season

The Dawgs needed overtime to take down the Longhorns in last year’s SEC Championship Game, 22–19. Now, Arch Manning returns to Athens—a place he visited as a recruit before ultimately turning down Kirby Smart and Georgia. Bulldog fans haven’t forgotten, and Sanford Stadium will be electric. If this isn’t a night game, we all lose.

Week 13: Duke at UNC
Location: Chapel Hill

Maybe USC vs. Oregon? Maybe Florida vs. Tennessee? That's probably enough SEC games for the regular season, and I have a feeling that USC-Oregon will be a lot less appealing when November gets here. Historically, the show has occasionally picked some rather obscure games to fill this weekend. Maybe I'm just hoping that Belichick has UNC rocking this late in the season and a visit to one of America's greatest college towns will offer enough intrigue.

Week 14: Ohio State at Michigan
Location: Ann Arbor

I don't think this is as much of a lock as some may think. There's Alabama-Auburn, Clemson-South Carolina and Texas-Texas A&M (though on Friday). If Michigan's not boasting an impressive enough record, maybe ESPN skips this game? Seems unlikely, but that South Carolina vs. Clemson matchup in Columbia is certainly one to keep an eye on.

Week 15: LSU vs. Alabama (SEC Championship Game)
Location: Atlanta

No Georgia or Texas. Instead, give me LSU vs. Alabama in a historic SEC title game. This would be both awesome and horrible at the same time.
