ESPN’s “College GameDay” returns for Week 9 of the college football season, traveling to Jackson, Miss, ahead of Jackson State’s game with Southern on Saturday, Oct. 29. The show will be live streamed on fuboTV (free trial) and DirecTV Stream (free trial).

The visit is the show’s fourth to a game featuring Historically Black Colleges and Universities. The show will be live from outside Mississippi Veterans Memorial Stadium.

The “BoomBox Classic” rivalry game will be the 68th meeting between the two teams.

Rece Davis leads the show in his eighth season as host and is joined at the desk by GameDay analysts Desmond Howard, Kirk Herbstreit, Pat McAfee and David Pollack. Reporters Jen Lada, Gene Wojciechowski and newcomer Jess Sims, along with research producer Chris ‘The Bear’ Fallica and college football insider Pete Thamel, round out the GameDay crew for the season.
