College Football Playoff Tickets

Vivid Seats will have College Football Playoff tickets at a number of price points. College Football Playoff tickets usually cost around $167.

First-round games in the College Football Playoff will take place on Friday, Dec. 19 and Saturday, Dec. 20 at the campuses of the higher-seeded at-large teams.

The four quarterfinal games, which will take place on New Year's Eve and New Year's Day, will be played at the site of the Cotton Bowl in Arlington, Texas; the site of the Orange Bowl in Miami Gardens, Florida; the Rose Bowl in Pasadena, California; and the site of the Sugar Bowl in Glendale, Arizona.

• First Round (Dec. 19-20)
• Quarterfinals (Dec. 31-Jan. 1): Cotton Bowl, Orange Bowl, Rose Bowl and Sugar Bowl
• Semifinals (Jan. 8-9): Fiesta Bowl and Peach Bowl
• CFP National Championship (Jan. 19)

Let's break down the new College Football Playoff structure. Twelve teams will be selected for the Playoff. The five highest ranked conference champions will make the Playoff, with the four highest ranked of those teams being awarded seeds #1-4 and a first round bye. The fifth-highest ranked conference champion and seven other teams selected by the committee will round out the playoff teams and play in the first round. For the teams playing in the first round, the highest seeds will host the lower seeds at their home field.

The four teams that win in the first round will move on to the quarterfinals to play the teams who received a bye. Each year, quarterfinal and semifinal Bowl Games will rotate between the Cotton, Fiesta, Orange, Peach, Rose, and Sugar Bowls. From there, four teams will move on to the semifinals and the winners will play in the College Football Playoff Championship.

There is no limit on how many teams from one conference can make the College Football Playoff. However, there are no guaranteed spots for any conference. There is also no minimum ranking for the five highest ranked conference champions, who are guaranteed spots. For example, if the fifth ranked conference champion is ranked #24, they will still be given a spot over teams ranked #12-23.
