What is the CFP National Championship game?
The College Football Playoff (CFP) National Championship is a post-season NCAA Division I Football Bowl Subdivision game that began in 2014. It concludes the CFP, a tournament involving the top four teams selected by a committee. The teams for the final are determined through two semifinal games, part of the New Year’s Six bowl rotation. Cities bid to host the game, which is played at a neutral site, requiring stadiums to hold at least 65,000 spectators.
The champion receives the CFP National Championship Trophy, introduced in 2015 to replace the previous BCS system’s trophy. Notably, the NCAA does not award this championship, focusing instead on the Division I Football Championship Subdivision. The inaugural game in 2015 was won by Ohio State, and since then, Alabama has made the most appearances and holds the most titles. Neither feature in 2024′s showpiece.
