From there, 10 acts will graduate to the finals on Sept. 17 and Sept. 18, with one act going on to win a slot as a Las Vegas headline act and earning a $1 million prize. 

But regardless of what happens, the group will be back in the spotlight for the Lions game on September 15 against the San Diego Chargers.
