ESPN COLLEGE GAMEDAY Built by The Home Depot - college football's longest-running and most-celebrated pregame show - will return to Knoxville, Tenn., on Saturday, Sept. 24, in advance of No. 19 Florida at No. 14 Tennessee. THE WEEKLY SHOW airs from 9 a.m.-noon on ESPN and will be located on the lawn in front of Ayers Hall on UT's campus. The last time GameDay visited Knoxville was September 15, 2012, also for the Florida-Tennessee matchup.

The six-time Emmy Award-winning show is hosted by Rece Davis, who is joined by analysts Lee Corso, Kirk Herbstreit, Desmond Howard and David Pollack, as well as contributors Chris 'The Bear' Fallica, Jen Lada, Samantha Ponder, Tom Rinaldi, George Whitfield and Gene Wojciechowski.

College Football Live will air from the GameDay set on Friday with Ponder, Howard and Pollack (1:30 p.m., ESPN).

Corso began making his entertaining end-of-show headgear pick of the team he thinks will win the game at the GameDay site, marking 20 years this season. Week 4 will be headgear number 280 for Corso, as he is 185-94 all-time in headgear picks. The phenomenon began on October 5, 1996, prior to the Ohio State-Penn State game in Columbus, Ohio when he put on OSU's "Brutus Buckeye" mascot head to show his pick to win the game
