CFP Willing to Postpone Semifinals, Title Game for COVID-19 Issues, Per Hancock

College Football Playoff Executive Director Bill Hancock says New Year's Six games and the national championship could be postponed if a team is unable to play because of COVID-19.

"We are planning to play the games when they're scheduled," Hancock said, per Heather Dinich of ESPN. "We've said all along that we will be ready for any circumstance, and we will. But if one or both teams are not available and have to postpone a bowl game or the championship game, we will do it."

The only bowl that may not be subject to a postponement because of COVID-19 is the Orange Bowl on Jan.
