ESPNU Road Trip

ESPNU Road Trip: Georgia vs. Clemson Presented by Dr. Pepper rolled into Clemson for the first time this past weekend. The season’s debut show will air Wednesday, Sept. 6, at 7:30 p.m. with returning hosts Niki Noto and Ali Nejad once again featuring the tradition, rivalry and revelry in college towns on game day each week. While at Clemson, the duo met coach Dabo Swinney, hung out with the water ski team and stormed the field with 80,000 fans after the Tigers beat Georgia in the first upset of the college football season. This weekend Road Trip trucks into Louisville to see the Cardinals play in-state rival Eastern Kentucky.

ESPNU Road Trip: Lubbock & Austin Texas – airing Wednesday, Sept. 18, at 7:30 p.m. — is taking its name to a whole new meaning as viewers truck along with co-hosts Niki Noto and Ali Nejad during last Thursday’s TCU at Texas Tech game, then onto the Ole Miss at Texas game last Saturday. On their drive across the Lone Star State the crew makes stops in Frisco to visit The Big Game factory and quenches its thirst in Baylor’s backyard at the Dr. Pepper Museum in Waco. Viewers will relive moments of the Red Raiders upset, hang-out on the Texas sidelines with the NBA’s Kevin Durant and be a part of the many “smokey” and loud Longhorn game day traditions.

At 7:30 p.m., ESPNU Road Trip shines a spotlight on BYU during its home tilt against Utah last weekend. The crew goes fishing with BYU quarterback Taysom Hill, tees up on the golf course with BYU legendary coach LaVell Edwards and sees what the school’s version of college football tailgating is all about.

ESPNU Road Trip, airing Wednesday at 7:30 p.m., was on-hand for the Penn State Nittany Lions’ overtime win against Michigan. Hosts Niki Noto and Ali Nejad hung out on campus with true freshman quarterback Christian Hackenberg, hit the weight room with receiver Allen Robinson, toured the brand new Pegula Ice Arena prior to PSU’s inaugural Big Ten hockey season and played trashcan football with students at Nittanyville. Also, the show brings viewers field level for an electric home win in Happy Valley during this classic Big Ten matchup.
