Excitement Unleashes as College GameDay Takes Over Eugene, Oregon
College GameDay’s Enthusiastic Return to Eugene
The College GameDay show kicked off from Eugene, Oregon, early on Saturday morning, creating a vibrant atmosphere well before sunrise. With a local start time of 6 a.m. PT, the show was electrified by the energy of host Pat McAfee and Oregon head coach Dan Lanning. The University of Oregon hosted the program as the Ducks prepared to face the Indiana Hoosiers in a high-stakes Big Ten matchup.
Pat McAfee Leads the Crowd with Energy
True to form, Pat McAfee commenced the event by rallying the crowd with lively chants, standing atop his chair. Infusing humor and enthusiasm, McAfee delighted the spectators by singing the Isley Brothers’ classic “Shout,” bringing waves of laughter to his co-hosts and the audience. The atmosphere was nothing short of contagious, fueled by a combination of early morning excitement and copious amounts of coffee.
Dan Lanning Joins in the Festivities
The energy continued to escalate as Oregon head coach Dan Lanning joined the party. Known for his unique approach in contrast to traditional college football coaches, Lanning matched McAfee’s antics. As McAfee enacted his weekly tradition of removing his shirt, Lanning enthusiastically participated, eliciting a raucous reaction from the crowd comparable to iconic WrestleMania moments.
A Coach with a Distinctive Style

In the world of college football, where most coaches are known for their serious demeanor, Lanning stands out with his lively participation in GameDay antics. His willingness to engage in the fun, uncommon for major sports figures, draws a stark contrast to peers like Ryan Day or Dabo Swinney. This unique charisma not only aligns him with McAfee’s spirited persona but also adds to the allure of live GameDay broadcasts.
