This will be the final year of the four-team College Football Playoffs as it is set to expand to 12 teams in 2024. On the bright side, this year’s field of teams is without question the strongest we’ve had to date. Both the Rose Bowl and Sugar Bowl semi-finals are games that could go either way as the four teams have combined for only two losses on the season. One of which was from a game between two current playoff teams.
Over the 10 years, 15 different college football programs found their way into the Playoffs. With the expansion to 12 teams, we will see plenty of new faces competing in the tournament so teams like Cincinnati will have more of a shot moving forward as opposed to mainly the blue bloods.
These are the 15 teams who qualified for playoffs during the four-team era.
