It’s so easy to navigate and so easy to get my tickets. Literally got a ticket when the concert had already started and it worked so easily. I’ve tried a ton of other ticket apps and this one is just my favorite.Jun 4

About the CFP National Championship
The College Football Playoff (CFP) National Championship is the pinnacle of NCAA Division I Football Bowl Subdivision (FBS) postseason play, introduced during the 2014-2015 season. It replaced the Bowl Championship Series (BCS) National Championship Game as part of a larger effort to create a more transparent and competitive system for determining the national champion. Unlike the BCS, which relied on a combination of polls and computer rankings, the CFP National Championship is determined by a four-team playoff bracket. The two semifinal winners from the CFP's "New Year’s Six" bowl games meet in the championship, held at a neutral site.
Since its inception, the CFP National Championship has delivered thrilling games and unforgettable moments. The inaugural title game in January 2015 saw No. 4 seed Ohio State defeat No. 2 Oregon 42-20, marking the Buckeyes as the first team to win a championship under the new format. One of the most iconic moments came in 2017, when Clemson stunned Alabama in a dramatic 35-31 victory, capped off by a last-second touchdown pass from Deshaun Watson to Hunter Renfrow. This game highlighted the intensity and unpredictability the CFP brought to college football’s title chase.
Another standout moment occurred in the 2022 National Championship, when the Georgia Bulldogs ended a 41-year title drought by defeating Alabama 33-18. Georgia's dominant defense, led by Nakobe Dean and Jordan Davis, was key to their success. This victory also marked a shift in power within the SEC, showcasing Georgia’s emergence as a powerhouse. The following year, Georgia further solidified its dominance by winning back-to-back championships with a record-breaking 65-7 rout of TCU, the most lopsided victory in championship history.
The CFP National Championship has become a defining event in American sports, blending tradition with a modern format that amplifies excitement and competition. Its rotating host cities, which include iconic venues across the United States, bring a Super Bowl-like atmosphere to college football. The championship’s ability to deliver dramatic finishes, highlight outstanding talent, and crown deserving champions ensures its lasting impact on the sport. The CFP expanded to a 12-team format starting in 2024, with the National Championship poised to grow even further in significance and spectacle.
