About The Event
The College Football Playoff Championship Game will be held on January 11, 2016. The new postseason structure creates an exciting four-team playoff that preserves the best regular season in sports and protects America’s rich bowl history. The format is simple: the best four teams, two semifinals played in bowl games (this year semifinals Orange Bowl and Cotton Bowl) and a championship game played in a different city each year. It’s the best of all worlds and the biggest innovation in the sport in decades.
