The internet is ablaze! You know how it goes: whenever ESPN's College GameDay rolls into town, the armchair quarterbacks come out in droves, ready to critique every decision. But this time? Well, it seems the critics were, once again, off the mark.
Published on October 18, 2025, with an update at 6:24 PM EDT, the article dives into the heated reactions surrounding the show's venue choice. The author, who admits to past disagreements with College GameDay (as referenced in a previous article), acknowledges that the show nailed it this time.
Georgia versus Ole Miss: a clash of titans, a top-10 showdown. And the haters? Furious. The author highlights the online grumbling about ESPN's decision to spotlight another SEC matchup, as discussed earlier in the week.
But the game delivered. The first half alone was a spectacle, with neither team punting!
However, not everyone was thrilled. Some fans are already calling for the defensive coordinators to be replaced.
This game is a showcase of two of college football's brightest minds: Lane Kiffin and Kirby Smart. They let their teams do the talking on the field, and the viewers are the real winners.
With rumors swirling about Kiffin's future, one might have expected a distracted Ole Miss team. But the Rebels, under Kiffin's leadership, were ready to battle in a hostile environment.
An Ole Miss victory could propel them towards a deep playoff run.
So, what do you think? Did College GameDay make the right call? Were the critics justified in their initial outrage, or were they, as the article suggests, simply wrong? Let's discuss in the comments!
