“College GameDay” will feature another Utah school this week.

Following a visit to Salt Lake City on Saturday, the popular ESPN show will head to Lubbock for BYU versus Texas Tech next week.

BYU, ranked inside the top 10, is fighting for its first Big 12 title and College Football Playoff berth.

The undefeated Cougars will see a 7-1 Texas Tech team that was the preseason favorite to win the league. A win over the Red Raiders would be a huge step toward clinching BYU’s spot in the Big 12 championship game in December.

The game is scheduled for 10 a.m. MT on ABC.
