ESPN GameDay to be at Orange and Blue Game

The crew from ESPN's award-winning GameDay show will be in Gainesville for a live broadcast of the Orange and Blue Spring game on April 12.

ESPN will also televise the game.

To help add to the telecast, Florida coach Urban Meyer said Wednesday there will be several new events this year, including a 40-yard dash contest between junior receiver Percy Harvin and a UF student. Details of the race, and other events, are still being formalized.

"ESPN is doing the spring game. College football is great, isn't it?,'' Meyer said.
