Four college football head coaches have agreed to take part in ESPN’s Coaches Film Room for the College Football Playoff National Championship Game on Monday, January 13.

ESPN will be running a megacast for Monday’s title bout between No. 1 LSU and No. 3 Clemson in New Orleans. One of the ways to consume the game will be the network’s always-popular Film Room. And now, just a few days away from kickoff, the names of the four coaches have been revealed:

  • Mike Gundy, Oklahoma State
  • Gary Patterson, TCU
  • Derek Mason, Vanderbilt
  • Jeff Hafley, Boston College

That should be a pretty insightful coaching panel — and Gundy will probably add plenty of comedy to the broadcast.

ESPN did not use the Film Room broadcast for the two College Football Playoff semifinal games, but it’s been so popular in the past that it was hard not to bring it back.
