GREENSBORO, N.C. (theACC.com) – ESPN announced Tuesday that College GameDay Built by The Home Depot will broadcast live from Charlotte, North Carolina, on Sept. 4 for the Week 1 game between Clemson and Georgia in the Duke’s Mayo Classic at Bank of America Stadium.

The show will originate from Bearden Park in uptown Charlotte, just a few minutes from Bank of America Stadium, where the Tigers play the Bulldogs at 7:30 p.m., in a highly-anticipated matchup on ABC Saturday Night Football presented by Capital One.
