They're baaaaack. The crew from ESPN's College GameDay is making their second fall stop in Tuscaloosa, Alabama this season. It's the third appearance when including Bama's opening contest with Wisconsin out in Fort Worth, Texas.
The Crimson Tide holds a 21-13 record in games played at the College GameDay site, whether Tuscaloosa or elsewhere. Though having that 8-game advantage, the Tide lost the last such appearance in T-town, a September 19th loss to the Ole Miss Rebels.
This will be the third consecutive Alabama-LSU game from which GameDay has originated, and four out of five regular-season meetings regular-season match ups between the pair.
ESPN's College GameDay begins at 8 a.m. CT and lasts for 3 hours.

In a lengthy three-set match, Alabama freshman Andie Daniell claimed her singles draw to defeat Natalie Suk of Ole Miss yesterday at the 28th annual Roberta Alison Fall Classic. The even is held at the University of Alabma Tennis Stadium and the Roberta Alison Baumgardner Tennis Facility.
Though the match started outdoors, Daniell and Suk were forced inside due to rain. Daniell's win looked like this: 6-7(3), 6-2, 7-6(5).
Though this is the end of the fall season for most of the women's tennis team, Daniell and junior Erin Routliffe will complete in the 2015 USTA/ITA National Indoor Intercollegiate Championships in Flushing Meadows, New York. This is a four-day tournament, and will be played at the USTA Billie Jean King National Tennis Center.
