ESPN announces programming changes for college football championship game between Ohio State and Notre Dame

ESPN has adjusted its programming for the college football national championship game between Ohio State and Notre Dame on January 20. The game will start at 7:30 pm ET at Mercedes-Benz Stadium in Atlanta, Georgia. ESPN will replace its usual afternoon shows with special college football content leading up to the game. This includes College Football Live at 2 pm ET and a championship edition of College GameDay at 5 pm ET. NFL Live will still air on January 20 but will be shown on ESPN2 instead of the main channel. This change comes as ESPN prepares for the first-ever 12-team College Football Playoff.
