- College_Football_Playoff abstract "The College Football Playoff (CFP) is the system in American college football that will determine a national champion for the NCAA Division I Football Bowl Subdivision (FBS) beginning in the 2014 season. Under the playoff, four teams will play in two semifinal games, with the winners advancing to the new College Football Championship Game. Six bowl games — the Rose Bowl, Sugar Bowl, Orange Bowl, Cotton Bowl, Fiesta Bowl, and Peach Bowl — will rotate as hosts for the semifinal games. The rotation is set on a three-year cycle with the following pairings: Rose/Sugar, Orange/Cotton, and Fiesta/Peach. The two semifinals, plus the other four top-tier bowls, will be marketed as the "New Year's Six", with three bowls played per day, typically on consecutive days that include New Year's Day.The championship game will be played on the first Monday that is six or more days after the semifinals. The game's venue will be selected based on bids submitted by cities, similar to the Super Bowl or Final Four, with AT&T Stadium in Arlington, Texas hosting the first title game on January 12, 2015. The winner will be awarded a new trophy instead of the AFCA "crystal football", which had been regularly presented after the championship game since the 1990s; officials wanted a new trophy that was unconnected with the previous championship system. The new College Football Playoff National Championship Trophy will be sponsored by Dr Pepper, which paid an estimated $35 million for the sponsorship rights through 2020.Unlike college football's title system used from 1998 to 2013, the Bowl Championship Series (BCS), the new format will not use computer rankings or polls to select the participants. Rather, a committee of 13 experts will select and seed the teams. The playoff system will be the first time the top-level NCAA football championship is determined by a bracket competition. The new format is a Plus-One system, an idea which became popular as an alternative to the BCS after the 2003 and 2004 seasons ended in controversy.The playoff system is contracted to be in place through at least the 2025 season per an agreement with ESPN, which owns the rights to broadcast all games. The network reportedly paid $7.3 billion overall for the 12-year TV rights.".
