ESPN College Gameday Driven by State Farm will broadcast live from Assembly Hall this Saturday, Feb. 6.

All Orange Krush members will be allowed admittance at 7:30 a.m., while all other fans will be able to enter at 8:00 a.m.

Admission and Assembly Hall parking are free for all.

State Farm will donate $1 to the Orange Krush Foundation for each person that attends the GameDay show Saturday before the matchup between the Fighting Illini and Michigan State.

The show will begin at 10:00 a.m. and College Gameday crew members Rece Davis, Jay Bilas, Hubert Davis, and Digger Phelps will break down the basketball action and Illinois-Michigan State matchup for the fans.

ESPN will be giving one fan a chance to win $17,500, courtesy of State Farm, if they make a half-court shot. The fan will still be presented with a $1,000 check if the shot is missed.

T-shirts, rollabannas and net hats will be distributed to fans by State Farm.
