Will Oregon vs. Michigan State be featured on ESPN's College GameDay?

The Oregon Ducks have been prominently featured on ESPN's College GameDay in recent years. In fact, when last we saw the Ducks and Spartans on the same field College GameDay was in attendance. Moreover, that game lived up to the hype. 

So, would ESPN consider round two from East Lansing?

Chance Linton of 247 Sports explains why College GameDay should be in East Lansing come Sept. 12:

"College GameDay was on hand in Eugene last year for this matchup and it more than lived up to the hype, with Oregon coming out on top thanks to a huge second half comeback. It’s a safe bet the GameDay crew will be in East Lansing for the return trip in week two. Last year’s game between the Ducks and Spartans proved to be the best, and most important, non-conference game of the season, with the win catapulting Oregon on its run to the national title game and launching Marcus Mariota’s successful Heisman campaign. 

This year’s matchup will have comparable stakes as both teams should open the season ranked somewhere in the Top 10. Michigan State will be at home this time and if QB Connor Cook can carry the Spartans to victory with a big performance, he could see a similar trajectory to Mariota’s 2014 season, with the win giving him an early edge on the rest of the Heisman field."

Other potential week two games that could be featured on the show are Oklahoma at Tennessee and LSU at Mississippi State.
