How the new College Football Playoff works
The 12-team CFP features guaranteed bids to the five highest-ranked conference champions. The top four conference champions earn a bye and are guaranteed a spot in the CFP quarterfinals.
Teams that finish ranked between No. 5-12 will play in the first round (Dec. 20-21). The higher ranked teams will host those games on campus.
The Rose Bowl, Fiesta Bowl, Peach Bowl and Sugar Bowl will host the quarterfinals (Dec. 31-Jan. 1). The Orange Bowl and Cotton Bowl will host the semifinals (Jan. 9-10).
The national championship game will be Jan. 20 in Atlanta.
