The good news is that NEB/IND is an absolutely perfect game to get GameDay for. Dormant program with big-time coach hire who became the first FBS team to be bowl-eligible in 2024.
Now the bad news—UGA/TEX and ALA/TENN are the same week, and both are ESPN-controlled games (NEB/IND is not). Of course, GameDay has been to Austin and Knoxville a gazillion times. They’ve been to Bloomington…once, and that wasn’t even for a Saturday game (Thursday opener vs. OSU).
So if we want GameDay to come to Bloomington, I think a campaign may be in order. (And if we don’t, to hell with it. )
