College Football Playoff Bracket & Rankings
The CFP uses the committee’s final top 25 rankings, but the playoff seeds are determined differently. The four highest-ranked conference champions receive the top four seeds and a bye. The fifth-highest-ranked champion automatically qualifies but does not get a bye.
