ATLANTA — The College Football Playoff decided to bring its national championship game back to Atlanta in January 2025 because “the city has every ingredient necessary,” CFP Executive Director Bill Hancock said.
“Every event I’ve done in Atlanta has been a home run,” Hancock, a veteran of staging major sporting events, said in an interview with The Atlanta Journal-Constitution. “We are delighted to be coming back to Atlanta.”
The CFP announced Tuesday afternoon that its championship game will be played at Mercedes-Benz Stadium on Jan. 6, 2025, confirming an earlier report by the AJC.
