The rings feature 133 stones representing the FBS teams, including 12 crest stones for playoff teams and one diamond in the center for the national championship, according to ESPN.
One side of the ring displays the Atlanta skyline in honor of the title game taking place at Mercedes-Benz Stadium, while the other reads "12 teams, 1 champ" around the newly expanded postseason bracket.
The ring also displays the College Football Playoff trophy and the year 2025, as well as the ESPN logo.
ESPN previously presented Michigan with a giant version of the national championship rings following the conclusion of the 2024 college football season.
The new rings will be handed out to the winners after Monday's title game. Fans will then be able to see the bling in person from Jan. 18 to Jan. 20 during an ESPN event at Georgia World Congress Center, according to ESPN.
Ohio State and Notre Dame kick off for a shot at the national title and the new rings Monday evening at 7:30 p.m. ET.
