How does the College Football Playoff work?

The new 12-team College Football Playoff will feature the top-four conference champions, all of which will receive automatic bids as the Nos. 1-4 seeds.

Those top four teams will receive a first-round bye and automatically advance to the quarterfinals.

The other eight ranked teams will compete for positions among the Nos. 5-12 seeds in the bracket and will play their games on the home field of the higher-ranked team.

The committee selects the 12 best teams in the country using a process that aims to distinguish teams from each other by considering the following:

• Strength of schedule
• Head-to-head competition
• Outcomes vs. common opponents
• Other relevant factors, like availability of player, coach
