College football fans were impressed by Coco Jones' performance of the national anthem before the College Football Playoff finale between the Ohio State Buckeyes and the Notre Dame Fighting Irish.
Grammy winner Jones, 27, took the field at Mercedes-Benz Stadium in Atlanta to perform before kickoff Monday night.
Jones is a Grammy Award winner and took home honors in the “Best R&B Performance” category for her song “ICU.”
And on the same day as Donald Trump's inauguration, she stole the show with her performance of “The Star-Spangled Banner.”
ESPN showed the performance in full just weeks after the network was criticized for not showing it before the Sugar Bowl in New Orleans, which was moved a day after the New Year's Day terror attacks in the city, fourteen people were killed.
And viewers went wild with Jones' performance, taking to social media before kickoff in Atlanta to express their joy.

One viewer wrote: 'Coco Jones is killing it! What a voice.'
Another commented: 'I've never heard of Coco Jones until tonight and that's a shame. She just sang one of the best versions of the national anthem I've ever played. Beautifully done'.
A third wrote: “Coco Jones casually drops a Whitney Houston-level rendition of the national anthem. Wow.'
“Coco Jones does her THANG to this anthem!!!!!,” another commented.
Another added, “Carrie Underwood at the inauguration today, and Coco Jones singing the national anthem at the FBS championship game tonight, just wow!”
Jones, 27, was the third straight Grammy winner to perform the national anthem during the college football title game.
The final two anthem artists were acapella group Pentatonix and R&B singer and former American Idol winner Fantasia.
Jones has again been nominated for two Grammy Awards this year at the ceremony, which takes place next month.
This year it is Jones' song 'Here We Go (Uh Oh)' for which she is nominated for 'Best R&B Performance' and 'Best R&B Song'.

Jones is from Tennessee and doesn't seem to have much interest in the national championship.
Notre Dame and Ohio State will play in the national championship game to conclude the first 12-team College Football Playoff.
The Buckeyes haven't won a national championship since 2014, the first year of the four-team CFP.
Recently, ESPN chief Burke Magnus admitted that the network made “a huge mistake” by not showing the national anthem before the Sugar Bowl in New Orleans.
But Magnus blamed “human error” after neither “The Star-Spangled Banner” nor the moment of silence were shown on the main broadcast following the deadly terror attack, which killed 14 people and injured another 35 .
College football fans were left outraged, with one calling ESPN “disgusting” and former anchor Sage Steele accusing the network of deliberately skipping the national anthem before Notre Dame faced Georgia in Caesars Superdome.
But Magnus, chairman of ESPN's content division, insists the network feels “terrible” about the incident and must be “held accountable for it.”
“There's a group of people in Bristol who just made a huge mistake,” he told The Clay Travis & Buck Sexton Show.
'It was human error, it happens. I don't want to downplay it in any way, but there was nothing normal about that the next day, including our programming.”
