SANTA CLARA (KRON/AP) – The two Super Bowl teams are set to practice for the NFL’s championship game next year on the campuses of Stanford and San Jose State.
The new Levi’s Stadium in Santa Clara is hosting Super Bowl 50 on February 7th, 2016.
Stanford said Friday that the NFC champion will practice on its campus, as well as using the field house, weight room, and conference rooms to prepare for the game.
Stanford Stadium previously hosted a Super Bowl in January 1985 when San Francisco beat Miami.
San Jose State says it will host the AFC champion on its campus. New Orleans, Dallas, New England and Jacksonville have all held practices at San Jose State in recent years while on the West Coast.
In May, the Bay Area won the bid to host the Super Bowl for the first time since 1985. The game will be played at the 49ers home stadium just two seasons after its opening.
