Crossing the line into another world of football or 'fútbol', the United States is set to host the 2025 FIFA (Fédération Internationale de Football Association) World Cup.

While this international tournament usually has absolutely zero overlap with the world of NCAA college football or 'American football', in 2025, the World Cup will actually be held in a handful of collegiate stadiums that are normally dedicated to gridiron matchups.

On Thursday, Oct. 3, FIFA announced which stadiums across the country would act as host venues for the upcoming World Cup.

So, which college football stadiums will be apart of the international tournament in 2025?
