2025-26 College Football Postseason Schedule
The 2024-25 college football postseason schedule is our second year with a 12-team playoff. We’ve had some modifications to how the seeding is going to work, but otherwise nothing huge for the 2025-26 bowl season. Now for next year, stand by. We could see the playoffs expand a little more, or other changes.
