The college football national title game will now feature a halftime show set to compete with the Super Bowl, although it will not be at the same venue as the game.
According to Ralph D. Russo of the Associated Press, a musical guest, who has not yet been booked, will perform at halftime in Centennial Olympic Park in Atlanta. The game will be played in the nearby Mercedes-Benz Stadium on Jan. 8.
The marching bands for each school will continue to perform on the field while the teams are in the locker rooms.
