ESPN College GameDay Week 5 location announced for 2026 season
College GameDay has announced its destination for Week 5.
ESPN’s College GameDay has announced its Week 5 destination for the 2026 college football season. The show will head to Iowa City for the upcoming Saturday showdown between Iowa and Ohio State. This marks the first time the program has been in Iowa City in 20 years.
The game promises to be an exciting one, especially following Iowa’s thrilling win over Michigan earlier in the season. Iowa quarterback Hank Brown secured the victory with a last-second touchdown pass to Reece Vander Zee in the end zone during their "Big House" win.
Iowa currently sits at 4-0 heading into the matchup and is expected to climb in the latest AP poll. Ohio State, on the other hand, will enter the game with high spirits after their dominant 42-19 victory over Illinois. Wide receiver Jeremiah Smith had an outstanding performance against Illinois, catching 12 passes for 217 yards and scoring four touchdowns. He is Ohio State’s all-time leader in receiving yards and the first OSU wideout to reach the 3,000 career yard mark.
The kickoff for Saturday’s game will take place at 3:30 p.m. ET on CBS.
