ESPN is bringing College GameDay to New York City and Times Square next Saturday.

The whole point of GameDay is for the college football pregame show to be broadcasted from whichever game is the biggest of the week. That game for next weekend will most likely be TCU against Oklahoma State in Stillwater, Oklahoma.

That’s a solid 1,400 miles away from where GameDay is going to be hosted. Has ESPN lost its mind? Did nobody tell the producers the entire point of the show is to hype of the fanbases from the actual location of a big game?

You know how many games are going to be played in Times Square this weekend? Exactly zero games.

Well played, ESPN. Thank you so much for ruining my Saturday routine and the routines of college football fans everywhere. Outstanding job.
