Beginning in 2025, the College Football Playoff will implement a straight seeding model, fundamentally changing how teams are selected and positioned for the postseason. This change eliminates the previous automatic playoff positioning given to the top four conference champions, placing the emphasis solely on rankings determined by the selection committee. While conference champions remain eligible for playoff spots, their seeding will reflect their performance as assessed by committee members rather than their conference title, shifting the focus toward perceived strength rather than tradition or regional dominance.
The transition to a straight seeding model for the College Football Playoff in 2025 marks a significant shift away from the traditional reliance on conference championships.
Moving forward, teams will be ranked based purely on their performance as determined by the selection committee, rather than their status as conference champions.
