Under the deal with Home Depot, the retailer remains as presenting sponsor of the Saturday morning show that previews the day's college football action, known as "ESPN College GameDay Built by The Home Depot." HD receives logo placement on-set and sponsored feature segments as part of the agreement.
Home Depot uses the sponsorship to reach consumers as they begin to tackle home improvement tasks for the weekend.
