The NCAA's College Football Playoff may be a relatively new tradition, it's an important one. No longer is the national champion decided (entirely) by a room full of distant decision-makers. Now, we get three games to decide which of the four top teams is the best in the country.
This year's final four is full of talent and tremendous stories. We have newly-minted Heisman-winner Kyler Murray and the Oklahoma Sooners, perennial contender Alabama, 2016-17 champion Clemson and undefeated Notre Dame.
One of these four will soon become just the fifth NCAA champion under the CFP system.
