A passing thought on ESPN Gameday

[SWC75]

If we ever got them to come here for football, where do you think they would set up their set? They are usually elevated, perhaps on a balcony, with a large crowd in the background.

Hendrick's Chapel?

Carnegie Library?

Bird Library?

Newhouse?

Crouse College?

Maxwell?

The Hall of Languages?

The new IPF?

Marshall Street?

They might want the Dome in the background but I'm not sure where they would set up for that.

Forestry?

Mt. Olympus?

 

[Rocco]

The Quad would be a near certain location IMO.

 

[Chip]

It would definitely be somewhere on the Quad, toward Hendricks Chapel or the SW corner so they can get a slight Dome view in the background.

Can't they build up their own elevation?

I'll send them my thoughts in 2047 when it's on their possible list.

There a Coke Zero commercial running where the Gameday crew is superimposed on a green screen that shows the SU quad. Shot has Hendricks to the left and Carnegie to the right. That's the shot if by some miracle we're good enough to warrant Gameday ever coming for real.

Sounds about where the local radio guys are set up for their pre-game show. If they wanted elevation, they'd have to build it up.

Is this the one?

Screw GameDay and Herbie the Homer too.

Last week they weren't on Temple's campus, nor at the Linc.

They were set up on Independence Mall.

They always seem to be on the same surface. I suspect, therefore that they build their own platform, rather than using a roof balcony or steps. I suspect they'd be where the radio guys are, to the east of the physics building, on their own elevated platform.

I would think the QUAD or somewhere near Marshall St

 

[DoubleDee]

They do have there own "stage" with weather protection and such.

Def the quad. There is no other choice.

Quick aside: I haven't watched a pregame show in about 5 years. I can only handle so much fake laughter. Cringe-inducing.

Why in the world would College Gameday want to come to Syracuse!!!!!!

 

[Briancuse]

The quad, but we are light years away from that even being a possibility, the college gameday team hasn't even been born yet that will be doing a show at SU at the rate we are going.

Why in the world would College Gameday want to come to Syracuse!

Only in January or February
