PASADENA, Calif. (WHNT) – Employees at The Rose Bowl Stadium at busy with a quick changeover from The Rose Bowl on January 1 to The National Championship on Monday, January 6th.

Game Day Preparations
As you can see, things aren’t quite ready outside the stadium.

When WHNT News 19’s Carson Clark and Megan Hayes stopped by the stadium today, preparations were in full swing.  We met with stadium media coordinator Eric Kay who told us the employees are well versed in taking care of this quick reset.

The sign to the left shows just how things are right now. The base of the sign has an auburn helmet on it, but the top still has the Stanford logo.  By Monday, everything will be ready to go.

Be sure to join the WHNT News 19 crew for the BCS National Championship Pregame Special on Saturday night at 7:00.

Also, watch for reports from Megan Hayes and Carson Clark in the days leading up to the big game.
