Which country stars should perform at the Super Bowl Halftime Show? We asked that question this morning, and y'all had some answers for us. It seems like county music gets ignored when it comes to the Super Bowl Halftime Show. The NFL usually wants a country star to sing the National Anthem, however they won't let a country star do the big show.

Luke Bryan and Eric Church, Chris Stapleton and Garth Brooks, they've all sung the National Anthem, but nothing else. There are a lot of country stars that sell out stadiums every year. A lot of these are the same stadiums that Super Bowls are held in. These same artists cross genres, and people who aren't really even country fans know these artists.

Y'all had a ton of comments on our Kicks Wake Up Krew Facebook page. There were a few of you who said Eric Church and Luke Bryan. I think either of those guys would be great! Next Reba was suggested as well, and she would put on a great show. And then several of you out there in Kicks Country said Morgan Wallen as well. He definitely is the hottest thing in country music right now.

Cody and I gave our opinions on who we thought should perform at the Super Bowl Halftime Show.

Then we opened it up to y'all, and you had comments, just like you always do.

Of course, more of y'all wanted to chime in. Chris, Sherrie and Shawn all had suggestions as well.
