OU released rules and regulations for ESPN’s “College GameDay” in Norman ahead of its game against Michigan Saturday. 

According to a Facebook post from OU Student Affairs, security provided by both the OU Police Department and ESPN will be stationed around the area overnight. 

The pit in front of the "College GameDay" stage opens at 5:30 a.m., with limited space available for fans. Participants are encouraged to wear OU colors and will receive a numbered wristband upon entry, the post states. 

Fans are prohibited from bringing food, drinks, pens, pencils, markers, dry erase boards, camping tents, alcohol, drugs, signs on sticks and bags into the pit. Throwing objects is strictly prohibited, the post states. 

Signs with vulgar, political, religious or commercial verbiage are prohibited, and all signs will be inspected upon entry.

Fans are encouraged to arrive early, stay hydrated and adhere to the rules and regulations to ensure a safe and enjoyable gameday weekend.
