Time to start making arrangements for the 2025 College Football Playoff. The CFP and ESPN released the dates and times for the quarterfinals, semifinals, and national championship game on Tuesday afternoon. Dates, times, and location of the first round matchups which occur at on campus sites will be released later in the year.

This year's College Football Playoff quarterfinals will begin on New Year's Eve with the Cotton Bowl Classic at AT&T Stadium in primetime. Last year's game featured Ohio State and Texas in the semifinals of the playoff. The Orange Bowl, Rose Bowl and Sugar Bowl will all be a part of the quarterfinal round of the College Football Playoff and take place as part of a triple header on New Year's Day.
