FYI, THIS IS WHAT THE “CFP “IS ALL ABOUT, READ BELOW:<\/strong><\/p>\n

The College Football Playoff (CFP) is the system in American college football<\/a> that will determine a national champion for the NCAA Division I Football Bowl Subdivision<\/a> (FBS) beginning in the 2014 season.[1]<\/span><\/a><\/sup> Under the playoff, four teams play in two semifinal games, with the winners advancing to the new College Football Championship Game<\/a>. \u00a0Six bowl games<\/a> \u2014 the Rose Bowl<\/a>, Sugar Bowl<\/a>, Orange Bowl<\/a>, Cotton Bowl<\/a>, Fiesta Bowl<\/a>, and Peach Bowl<\/a>\u00a0 rotate as hosts for the semifinal games. The rotation is set on a three-year cycle with the following pairings: Rose\/Sugar, Orange\/Cotton, and Fiesta\/Peach. The two semifinals plus the other four top-tier bowls are marketed as the “New Year’s Six”, \u00a0with three bowls played per day, typically on consecutive days that include New Year’s Day<\/a>.<\/strong><\/p>\n

The championship game is played on the first Monday that is six or more days after the semifinals. The game’s venue is selected based on bids submitted by cities, similar to the Super Bowl<\/a> or Final Four<\/a>, with AT&T Stadium<\/a> in Arlington, Texas<\/a> hosting the first title game on January 12, 2015. The winner is awarded a new trophy instead of the AFCA “crystal football”<\/a>, which had been regularly presented after the championship game since the 1990s; officials wanted a new trophy that was unconnected with the previous championship systems. \u00a0The new College Football Playoff National Championship Trophy<\/a> is sponsored by Dr Pepper<\/a>, which paid an estimated $35 million for the sponsorship rights through 2020.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Unlike college football’s title system used from 1998 to 2013, the Bowl Championship Series<\/a> (BCS), the new format does not use computer rankings or polls to select the participants. Rather, a committee of 13 experts selects and seed the teams. \u00a0The playoff system is the first time the top-level NCAA football championship is determined by a bracket competition<\/a>. The new format is a Plus-One system<\/a>, an idea which became popular as an alternative to the BCS after the 2003<\/a> and 2004<\/a> seasons ended in controversy.<\/strong><\/p>\n

The playoff system is contracted to be in place through at least the 2025 season per an agreement with ESPN<\/a>, which owns the rights to broadcast all games. \u00a0The network reportedly paid $7.3 billion overall for the 12-year TV rights.<\/strong><\/p>\n

The first College Football Playoff selection committee was announced on October 16, 2013. The group consists of 13 members who generally serve three-year terms, although some initial selections will serve terms both shorter and longer than three years “to achieve a rotation” of members.<\/strong><\/p>\n

The College Football Playoff will use a four-team bracket to determine the national champion. Six bowl games will rotate as hosts for the semifinal games. The two-bowl rotation is set on a three-year cycle with the following pairings: Rose\/Sugar, Orange\/Cotton, and Fiesta\/Peach. The selection committee will seed and pair the top four teams, plus assign teams to the at-large bowls (Cotton, Fiesta, and Peach) in years when they do not host semifinals.<\/strong><\/p>\n

The four-team format will pit the No. 1-ranked team against No. 4 and No. 2 vs. No. 3. The selection committee will seed the two semifinal games to prevent the top seed from playing in a “road” environment. There will be no limits on the number of teams per conference, a change from previous BCS rules. \u00a0However, some non-semifinal bowl selections will be based on conference tie-ins, similarly to the BCS’s automatic qualifier<\/a> berths. A spot is also guaranteed for a team from the “Group of Five” mid-major conferences.<\/strong><\/p>\n
