We've never seen a college football postseason like this one before. We have a new 12-team College Football Playoff that includes five conference champions and seven at-large teams.

It's a standalone event, but the quarterfinal round does include four bowl-game sites — Rose, Sugar, Peach, Fiesta — to keep the bowls relevant. Here is a breakdown of playoff teams by conference:

• BIG TEN (4): Oregon (champion), Penn State, Ohio State, Indiana

• SEC (3): Georgia (champion), Texas, Tennessee

• ACC (2): Clemson (champion), SMU

• Big 12 (1): Arizona State

• Mountain West (1): Boise State

• Independents (1): Notre Dame

There's also still a full three weeks of bowl games as well.

Here is the complete schedule for the playoffs and bowl games, with dates, gametimes, location, TV information, point spreads and more. And we will update this file in real time. All point spreads are courtesy of the FanDuel.com gambling website and are subject to change. (We will update them daily.)
