College Football Playoff announces COVID-19 contingency; If team can’t in semifinal or final, the game will be forfeited

Posted on December 22, 2021December 22, 2021 by Santiago Leon

The College Football Playoff publicly outlined its cancellation policies and procedures on Wednesday as COVID-19 cases spike across the country because of the Omicron variant.

The playoff said in a statement that the title game could be moved from Jan. 10 to as late as Jan. 14 if one or both of the semifinal-winning teams were unable to field a team on the scheduled game date. No. 1 Alabama plays No. 4 Cincinnati and No. 2 Michigan plays No. 3 Georgia on Dec. 31.

If a team is unable to play in a semifinal because of COVID-19 cases, that game will be forfeited. If two teams from the same semifinal are unable to play because of COVID-19 cases, the winner of the other semifinal will be declared the national champion. If three teams can’t play, the team that is available to play on Dec. 31 is the champion.
