ESPN will broadcast 14 alternate productions of the College Football Playoff national championship game Monday night.

It will be the second year ESPN will use its so-called Megacast.

The main broadcast for No. 1 Clemson against No. 2 Alabama will be on ESPN. ESPN2, ESPNU, SEC Network, ESPN Deportes, ESPN Classic, ESPNEWS and online streaming ESPN3 will give viewers different views and analysis.

Film Room on ESPN2 will feature commentators Brian Griese and Chris Spielman, along with Florida coach Jim McElwain, providing in-depth analysis from ESPN headquarters in Bristol, Connecticut.

ESPNEWS will feature some non-college football personalities such as Michelle Beadle and Jay Bilas commenting on the game from Los Angeles. The SEC Network will feature the Finebaum Film Room with talk-radio host Paul Finebaum and Arkansas coach Bret Bielema.
