Pro Football Hall of Famer Peyton Manning will be in Tennessee in the fall, but not for his alma mater. (Sorry Tennessee Volunteers fans.)
The Indianapolis Colts and Denver Broncos icon will be in Nashville on Nov. 9 to co-host the 56th annual Country Music Association Awards (8 p.m. ET, ABC) with country music star Luke Bryan.
The awards show will be held at the home of the NHL's Nashville Predators, Bridgestone Arena, which is some 180 miles from where Manning famously played college football in Knoxville.
It will be his first time hosting the CMA Awards, but Manning is familiar with being an emcee.
