MIAMI GARDENS (CBSMiami/AP) — Sun Life Stadium is in the midst of a large transformation.

Huge cranes are hovering outside the Orange Bowl stadium, as though trying to start a wave. They’re ready to raise the roof — after Thursday’s game.

The national championship semifinal between No. 1 Clemson and No. 4 Oklahoma will be played on a construction site. Miami Dolphins owner Stephen Ross’ stadium is undergoing renovations that began nearly a year ago and will continue in 2016, with the topper being a giant canopy to be erected over the seats.
