CFP 2025: 32 teams can make the College Football Playoff

The 12-team College Football Playoff will again include the five highest-ranked conference champions -- a guarantee that expands the pool of candidates to include any team that has a shot at winning its conference.

According to the Allstate Playoff Predictor, there are 32 teams -- the most in the CFP era -- with at least a 10% chance of reaching the playoff. They come from the Power 4 conferences, the American and the Mountain West, but how many of them can actually win the national title?

"Four or five," Texas A&M coach Mike Elko said.

"I'd say there's eight," Alabama's Kalen DeBoer said.
