Where will 'College GameDay' be for Week 10?
- Location: Salt Lake City, Utah.
- Time: 9 a.m. ET
- Matchup: No. 17 Cincinnati vs. No. 24 Utah
"College GameDay" might not be going to the highest-profile matchup this week, but it's one with huge significance.
— College GameDay (@CollegeGameDay) October 26, 2025No. 17 Cincinnati and No. 24 Utah meet in a pivotal Big 12 contest, marking the first-ever matchup between the two programs. The Bearcats enter the game with a 7-1 record and a seven-game winning streak, fueled by one of the most balanced and efficient offenses in the conference. Quarterback Brendan Sorsby leads the way, boasting an impressive touchdown-to-interception ratio, with 1,843 passing yards and 20 touchdowns to just one interception, which came in Cincinnati’s loss to Nebraska.
On the other side, the Utes feature one of the most electrifying quarterbacks in college football: Devon Dampier. Dampier is completing nearly 70% of his passes, throwing for 1,375 yards and 13 touchdowns. What makes him especially dangerous, however, is his rushing ability, with 442 yards and five touchdowns on the ground.
While neither team is considered a bona fide national championship contender, both have a chance to make a statement in front of a raucous Utah crowd.
