GameDay will be making its way to Harrisonburg in Virginia, where the James Madison Dukes will be taking on the Appalachian State Mountaineers in a highly competitive Sun Belt conference game. The Dukes are currently undefeated this season, and are on a 10-game winning streak, while the Mountaineers will be looking forward to building on their three-game winning streak.
This will be the first time that the Dukes will be hosting College GameDay on their campus as an FBS school. While still playing at the FCS level, they hosted it twice, with the last visit being back in 2017.
Despite being at the top of the Sun Belt rankings, the Dukes will not be able to compete in the post-season as they are in their second year of the transition period rules laid down by the NCAA.
