The upcoming college football season will be very different from what fans are used to. There will be a college football video game for the first time in a decade, teams are changing conferences left and right, but perhaps one aspect that many forget is the expanded playoff system that will be implemented this year.
Twelve teams, four conference champions and eight at-large teams will make the playoffs, with the league champions receiving a bye. The first round games will be on campuses, something that will be a novelty in the sport.
According to On3.com, they have designed the 12 teams and who and where they will play. In their bracket, Oregon will host a playoff game at Autzen Stadium as the No. 6 seed. Will the poor opponent who will experience a playoff atmosphere be Autzen? Good old Rocky Top.
11th-ranked Tennessee out of the SEC would travel to Eugene in this scenario. The winner of the Ducks-Vols game would play 3-seed Florida State in the Peach Bowl in Atlanta.
