Not sure if this was posted anywhere else, but UM posted the official communication on the College Gameday plan/location:
ESPN College GameDay to Broadcast Live from UM Campus - University of Miami Hurricanes
CORAL GABLES, Fla. – The University of Miami announced Wednesday that ESPN's iconic College GameDay show will be broadcast live on the UM campus for the first time this Saturday, November 11, at the school's Lakeside Patio.
The three-hour show, which debuted in 1987 and has been broadcasting on location from college campuses all across the country since 1993, will serve as a prelude to the seventh-ranked Hurricanes' nationally televised tilt against No. 3 Notre Dame Saturday night at Hard Rock Stadium. The game will be televised nationally on ABC at 8 p.m. and marks the Irish's first visit to South Florida to play UM since 1989.
College GameDay will be broadcast live on ESPN from 9 a.m. to noon. The main stage will be set up on the north end of the patio, between the Donna E. Shalala Student Center and the Norman A. Whitten University Center Pool.
The event is free and open to the public. Fans may begin arriving to the "Pit" area in front of the stage on a first come, first serve basis at 5 a.m. The Pit opens at 6:30 a.m. In addition, there will be overflow viewing areas around Lake Osceola and the Rock Plaza. Attendees can park at the Merrick and Pavia Garages, which are best accessed off Stanford Drive. Both garages will open at 5 a.m.
Fans who attend the live broadcast should expect to follow the ESPN "Pit Rules."
• Fans may arrive early to begin lining up for access to the pit at 5 a.m., with the Pit opening at approximately 6:30 a.m.
