The Miami Hurricanes are getting the College GameDay treatment next week.

Miami’s road game at the California Golden Bears on Oct. 5 will be the site of College GameDay, ESPN announced on Saturday.

The game kicks off at 10:30 p.m. Eastern Time (7:30 p.m. in California) from California Memorial Stadium.

It will be the first time College GameDay will be at Berkeley. It’s the first time the Hurricanes have been involved in College GameDay was on Oct. 10, 2020, when then-No. 7 Miami played at then-No. 1 Clemson.

Miami, ranked No. 7 in the AP poll but will potentially move into the top five when the next edition of the poll is released on Sunday, is 5-0 on the season after its 38-34, come-from-behind victory over Virginia Tech on Friday night at Hard Rock Stadium. It’s the Hurricane’s first time starting 5-0 since 2017.

Cal, in its first season in the Atlantic Coast Conference, is 3-1 on the season.
