According to a recent report, officials from Bristol Motor Speedway have told Sports Radio WNML that they expect to host College Gameday for the Tennessee vs. Virginia Tech game at the Battle at Bristol.

College GameDay last visited the Hokies for their opener against then ranked #1 Ohio State in 2015. Virginia Tech ended up losing the affair 42-24, but sold out Lane Stadium for the colossal event.

However, no event may be more colossal than the Battle at Bristol. In fact, the proposed 160,000 + fans in attendance is the most in college football history. Headlines are beginning to take shape as jabs from both teams and celebrity promotions are making the event bigger than reality. Even the TV screen hoisted above the playing field is the largest in history.

This news only sparks more attention to a special event, which is just over two months away. There has been a lot of news circulating the Battle at Bristol as Bristol Motor Speedway unveiled a star-filled concert for the event, and ABC announced the prime-time kickoff time for the game on September 10th.

This game, and the events surrounding it, are continuing to set up the Battle at Bristol for one of the most memorable college football games in history.
