End zones will be filled with superimposed slime during next month’s NFL Wild Card game telecast on Nickelodeon. Additionally, when a player mugs for the camera following a big play, cartoonish googly eyes -- or some other Snapchat-type of filter -- will be superimposed onto him during replays. Nickelodeon’s production, which was part of CBS Sports’ winning bid to carry the game, will have a distinctly Nickelodeon look-and-feel -- one that the NFL hopes will have more young viewers sample the game scheduled for Jan. 10 at 4:30pm ET.

Noah Eagle will call the game in the Nickelodeon booth, with CBS’ Nate Burleson and Nickelodeon’s Gabrielle Nevaeh providing analysis. Nick’s Lex Lumpkin will be the sideline reporter. Nick’s pregame show will be “The SpongeBob SportsPants Countdown Special” hosted by Broncos LB Von Miller. The halftime show will be a sneak peek of “Kamp Koral: SpongeBob’s Under Years,” which debuts on Nick later in the year. After a touchdown, the Nickelodeon telecast will cut to an animated SpongeBob and his friend Patrick screaming “Touchdown!”
