"College Football Playoff Adopts 5+7 Model for 12-Team Format, Adjusts Conference Champion Spots"

The College Football Playoff board has unanimously approved a change to the 5+7 model for the start of the 12-team format, with the top four conference champions receiving a first-round bye. The adjustment was made to account for the dismantling of the Pac-12 in the latest round of conference realignment. The New Year’s Six bowls will host the quarterfinals and semifinals on a rotation, and there is no limit to the number of at-large bids a conference can earn. Additionally, the CFP's Management Committee will meet to discuss key structural details for 2026 and beyond, as ESPN has agreed to a six-year, $7.8 billion extension to televise the event through 2031-32.
