"Waiting All Day For Sunday Night" is set to the Joan Jett song, "I Hate Myself For Loving You" and Carrie Underwood will sing it for the first time this year, taking over for Faith Hill who sang it from 2007 until this year.

Earlier this summer, NBC held "auditions" for the new voice for Sunday Night Football.  NBC stars like Heidi Klum, Matt Lauer and Joan Rivers got in on the fun!
