2022–23 College Football Playoff

The 2022–23 College Football Playoff was a single-elimination postseason tournament that determined the national champion of the 2022 college football season. It was the ninth edition of the College Football Playoff (CFP) and involved the top four teams in the country as ranked by the College Football Playoff poll playing in two semifinals, with the winners of each advancing to the national championship game. The four teams invited to participate were No. 1 Georgia from the Southeastern Conference, No. 2 Michigan from the Big Ten Conference, No. 3 TCU from the Big 12 Conference, and No. 4 Ohio State, also from the Big Ten Conference.

The playoff bracket's semifinal games were held at the Peach Bowl and Fiesta Bowl on New Year's Eve, part of the season's slate of bowl games. Georgia defeated Ohio State by one point in the Peach Bowl semifinal and TCU defeated Michigan by six in the Fiesta Bowl game. By virtue of their wins, TCU and Georgia advanced to the national championship game, held on January 9 in Inglewood, California. Georgia's 58-point victory in the title game was the largest win in a CFP National Championship Game, the largest margin of victory in a title game, and at the time, was the largest margin of victory in any bowl game at the FBS level. Georgia became the first team since the 2012 Alabama Crimson Tide to repeat as national champions. They also became the third college football team to complete a 15–0 season in the modern era after the 2018 Clemson Tigers and the 2019 LSU Tigers. This was the fourth consecutive national championship won by a team from the SEC.
