Week 11 of the 2026 college football season is here and features several exciting matchups, and ESPN's "College GameDay" had several solid options for where to go. They elected to head to Boise, Idaho, to watch the Boise State Broncos play the Oregon State Beavers.
Boise State is once again in the playoff mix, starting the year 8-1 and sitting atop the Pac-12 rankings. They are currently the highest-rated Group of 6 team, but can not afford any mistakes. Oregon State has been one of the surprises of the season, with quarterback Bradyn Atkinson and wide receiver Jesse Legree powering the offense. Legree leads the country with 1,209 receiving yards.
The usual crew of Rece Davis, Nick Saban, Kirk Herbstreit, Desmond Howard, and Pat McAfee were joined
by guest picker Ian Johnson to pick the top games of the weekend. Johnson is responsible for one of the most iconic plays in college football, scoring the game-winning two-point conversion to lead Boise State past the Oklahoma Sooners in the 2007 Fiesta Bowl.
