The 2026 season marks the third year the College Football Playoff will utilize a 12-team bracket, consisting of champions from the ACC, Big Ten, Big 12, SEC, the highest-ranked team outside of the Autonomy 4, and seven at-large teams.

RB Dylan Riley leads the nation in rushing with 1,049 yards and is one of three FBS running backs that has recorded over 1,000 rushing yards on the season. He leads the 11th best rushing attack in the nation (222.8 yards per game).
