AFC / NFC Championship Weekend

Does anyone know when these games are?

I know it's the weekend of 1/22, but are both games on Sunday or do they split them up with one on Sat and one on Sun?

And what times are they at?

Looks like I'm planning a trip for this weekend (Sat-Mon). Hopefully my chargers can turn it around and participate in the AFC title game!

I don't know about this year but last year they were both on Sunday.

January 23rd

They don't split them up.

In the history of the NFL, (since the first conference championship games was played in 1970) the two conference championship games have always been on a Sunday - they have never been "split up" with one game on a Saturday.

The starting times won't be announced until the teams are determined, but usually the first game is on at about 1:00 pm (Eastern Time) and the other game at 4:00 pm.

Me and a few friends have a room at Harrah's for this weekend.  Should be a great time...late night Saturday, wake up, gamble, and watch 7 hours of football on Sunday.

Is Championship weekend anything close to Super Bowl wknd as far as crowds go?

Or, at least, as far as the book crowds go?
