ESPN College GameDay is in Morgantown, West Virginia on Saturday for the SEC-Big 12 challenge matchup between the Kentucky Wildcats and No. 7 West Virginia Mountaineers.
To kickoff the show, the crew came together for an incredible opening that had social media buzzing.
Rece Davis, Seth Greenberg, Jay Bilas and Jay Williams came together to sing the John Denver classic, “Take Me Home, Country Roads.”
The cameras then turned to the West Virginia University Coliseum where the College GameDay hosts took the court and were joined by Mountaineers fans for the John Denver tribute.
