USF extended its winning streak to 12 games — the longest streak in the nation — and set an NCAA scoring milestone in the Bulls’ 34-28 win at Tulane. The Bulls scored at least 30 points for the 24th straight game, setting an NCAA record in the AP poll era of college football (since 1936). QB Quinton Flowers threw for 127 yards and two touchdowns and rushed for 138 yards and a score as the Bulls improved to 7-0 overall and 4-0 in The American. UCF stands at 6-0 for the first time in program history as the Knights became the first American Athletic Conference team to get a regular-season win at Navy. RB Adrian Killins Jr. rushed for 122 yards and two touchdowns, and UCF registered three takeaways on defense in a 31-21 win against the Midshipmen. UCF held Navy to 248 rushing yards and used two fourth-quarter turnovers to seal the win. The loss for Navy snapped a 17-game winning streak at home in the regular season. Memphis put itself atop the standings in the West Division as the Tigers rallied for a 42-38 win at Houston Thursday. Houston had built a 17-0 halftime lead and a 31-14 lead late in the third quarter, but the Tigers scored touchdowns on six straight second-half possessions as RB Patrick Taylor found the end zone four times and WR Tony Pollard scored on a 93-yard kickoff return. WR Anthony Miller had 10 catches for 178 yards for Memphis, which improved to 6-1 overall and 3-1 in The American. SMU still can control its outcome relative to the West Division title as the Mustangs improved to 2-1 in conference play and 5-2 overall with a 31-28 overtime win at Cincinnati. QB Ben Hicks threw for 295 yards and two touchdowns, and WR Trey Quinn had 17 catches for 186 yards, but it was LB Kyran Mitchell who sealed it with an interception in overtime. SMU sits a half-game behind Memphis in the West Division standings. UConn picked up back-to-back wins for the first time this season as the Huskies built a 20-0 lead and held off Tulsa’s comeback bid in a 20-14 win against the Golden Hurricane at Pratt & Whitney Stadium. QB Bryant Shirreffs threw for 372 yards and a touchdown, while WR Hergy Mayala had four catches for 131 yards and a TD. UConn’s defense registered six sacks and held the visitors scoreless through three quarters before Tulsa RB Shamari Brooks added a pair of touchdowns as part of his 164-yard day. ECU enjoyed its best performance of the season as the Pirates were 33-17 winners against BYU at Dowdy-Ficklen Stadium. QB Gardner Minshew came off the bench in the second half to throw for two touchdowns, WR Davon Grayson had 12 catches for 164 yards, and K Jake Verity kicked four field goals for the Pirates, who scored on seven of their 11 drives. Temple dropped a heartbreaker to Army as the Owls fell 31-28 in overtime in West Point. QB Frank Nutile threw for 290 yards and a touchdown in his first career start, but the Black Knights forced overtime with one second left in regulation before winning it with a field goal in the extra period.

COLLEGE FOOTBALL PLAYOFF NATIONAL CHAMPIONSHIP

January 8, 20188 p.m. ET, ESPN

Mercedes-Benz Stadium, Atlanta, Ga.

The College Football Playoff (CFP) is a big success. Fans, including many who are new to the sport, enjoy it. The first College Football Playoff semi-finals and national championship were the three most-viewed programs in cable television history.

Every Game CountsThe playoff preserves the excitement and significance of college foot-

ball’s unique regular season where every game counts.

Four TeamsThe selection committee ranks the teams based on the members’ evalu-

ation of the teams’ performance on the field, using conference champion-ships won, strength of schedule, head-to-head results, and comparison of results against common opponents to decide among teams that are comparable.

Two Games, One GoalThe kickoff of the new year belongs to college football, with two semifi-

nal games rotating annually among the Cotton Bowl, Fiesta Bowl, Orange Bowl, Peach Bowl, Rose Bowl and Sugar Bowl. The two teams winning the playoff semifinals compete for the College Football Playoff National Championship. That game is in a different city each year, always on a Monday night.

Universal AccessEvery FBS team has equal access to the College Football Playoff based

on its performance. No team automatically qualifies.

GovernanceUniversity presidents and chancellors from all 10 FBS conferences and

Notre Dame serve on the CFP Board of Managers and govern the admin-istrative operations, with commissioners (the Management Committee) managing the event. A small staff in the playoff office in Irving, Texas, carries out the detailed responsibilities.

Selection CommitteeA talented group of high-integrity individuals with experience as coach-

es, student-athletes, college administrators and journalists, along with sitting athletics directors, comprise the selection committee. Members of the committee are: Kirby Hocutt (chair), Frank Beamer, Jeff Bower, Herb Deromedi, Chris Howard, Tom Jernstedt, Bobby Johnson, Jeff Long, Rob Mullens, Dan Radakovich, Gene Smith, Steve Wieberg and Tyrone Willingham.

Selection Committee Responsibilities• Rank the top 25 teams and assign the top four to semifinal sites.• Assign teams to New Year’s bowls• Create competitive matchups• Attempt to avoid rematches of regular-season games and repeat

appearances• Consider geography

Participants In New Year’s BowlsBoth participants in the Orange, Rose and Sugar Bowls are contracted

outside the playoff arrange ment (Big Ten and Pac-12 to Rose Bowl; SEC and Big 12 to Sugar Bowl; ACC to Orange Bowl against the highest ranked available team from the SEC, Big Ten and Notre Dame). If a conference champion qualifies for the playoff, then the bowl will choose a replace-ment from that conference. When those bowls host the semifinals and their contracted conference champions do not qualify, then the dis placed champion(s) will play in one of the other New Year’s bowls.

When not hosting semifinals, the Cotton, Fiesta and Peach Bowls will welcome displaced conference champions and the top-ranked champion from a non-contract conference. The highest-ranked available teams will fill any other berths. The selection committee will make the pairings.
