Week 11 of college football is bringing us a lot of big match ups next weekend, which means that ESPN’s decision of where to take College GameDay gets a little tougher. But after mulling it over the last few hours, they have decided.
The crew will be headed to East Lansing, Michigan for the rematch of the Big Ten Championship Game from last season between the Ohio State Buckeyes and the Michigan State Spartans.

It had to be a tough call for the ESPN guys to make, but this is pretty much the right choice in the end.
This will undoubtedly be the biggest game in the Big Ten Conference all year, and the storylines are in place for all of the drama.
The Buckeyes ran roughshod through the regular season last year, for the second year in a row, and it appeared as if they were poised to play the Florida State Seminoles in the BCS National Championship Game. All they had to do was take care of Michigan State in Indianapolis and they were in.
Well, as we came to find out, they weren’t able to do that, falling to the Spartans 34-24 and instead earning a berth in the Orange Bowl.
Both of these teams are not only in the hunt for the Big Ten title, but they’re both still alive in the College Football Playoff race. And ESPN will be there for all of the action from start to finish.
