History

Historical Context

The College Football Playoff (CFP) was established in 2014, introducing a four-team knockout tournament to determine the NCAA Division I FBS national champion. This marked a significant shift from the previous Bowl Championship Series, which faced criticism for its selection process. The CFP's expansion to 12 teams in 2024 will further reshape college football dynamics, enhancing competition and visibility for teams like Jacksonville State and Florida International.
