College Football Playoff administrators approved a proposal for a straight-seeding model for the 2025 postseason, the group announced Thursday. This represents a major change in Year 2 of the expanded playoff.

The future format of the Playoff is still uncertain, but the sport's brass has made a major change to this year's postseason.

The College Football Playoff will go to a more straightforward way of filling the bracket next season, announcing Thursday that it will place teams strictly on where they are ranked instead of moving pieces around to reward conference champions.
