College Football Hall of Fame, Sports hall of fame in downtown Atlanta, US.
The College Football Hall of Fame is a sports hall of fame for college football in Atlanta. The facility showcases collections about players and coaches who gained recognition for their achievements in American college athletics.
The National Football Foundation created this institution in 1951, initially in South Bend, Indiana. The move to Atlanta took place in 2014, bringing the facility to a region where football plays a central role in campus life across the southeastern United States.
The museum presents hundreds of inductees from 186 different educational institutions, representing the diversity of American collegiate athletics.
The building sits in downtown Atlanta and is accessible by public transport. Visitors can try some drills on an indoor playing field, which works well for groups and families.
The selection committee requires players to have been named to a first-team All-America squad during their final college year. Beyond athletic success, candidates must also have shown good conduct off the field.
