SPONSORSHIP & PROMOTION With college football hitting its 150thseason this fall, The National Football Foundation & College Hall of Fame highlighted celebrations taking place in the coming months to pay homage to the occasion on both a local and national level. In addition, major broadcast networks that cover college football have all pledged to support the Anniversary through use of the CFB150 logo and recognition of the Anniversary on-air and in some cases through the creation of special programming, including ACC Network, Big Ten Network, CBS, ESPN, FOX, NBC, Pac-12 Networks, SEC Network and Stadium. "The NFF has been in the vanguard of promoting the game for the past 73 years," said NFF President & CEO Steve Hatchell. "And we wanted to take a leadership role in celebrating the 150thanniversary, including providing the office space for CFB150 at our corporate headquarters; staging events at the Hall in Atlanta; and incorporating the milestone into all of our key messaging whenever possible. It's a great opportunity for us to reflect on all of the amazing opportunities college football creates for the young people and the countless regions across the country who are enriched by having programs in their communities."
