CFB Playoffs, Awards and History

Permissions

Anyone can read these pages. Creating or editing playoffs and awards requires Edit Dynasty permission.

Create the playoff field

Open Playoff from the dynasty navigation and select the season. Commissioners can choose a 4, 8, 12, or 16-team field; new fields default to 12 teams. Add the teams to Seeds in order, beginning with the number-one seed, then save. The initial bracket includes each opening matchup and any first-round byes.

Playoff scores and matchups are maintained separately from the Games schedule; saving a playoff result does not create a game or change game-derived standings. Enter teams and scores as the playoff moves forward. Select the champion after the title game. Changing the bracket size or seed order rebuilds its matchup slots, so review the field before saving that change. Use Download to save the complete current bracket as an image without its editing controls.

If a seeded team is deleted, its seed stays visible as Deleted team and saved matchups remain available. Remove that entry from Seeds in order, choose its replacement, and confirm rebuilding the bracket when saving the changed field.

Record awards

Open Awards and select a season. Commissioners can record the Heisman, Coach of the Year, conference champions, and custom awards. Each entry accepts an award name, recipient, and optional dynasty team. Edit or delete an entry from its card. Award rows stay attached to their season when the dynasty advances.

Browse the record book

Open History & Records to see season standings and champions, team head-to-head results, active and longest winning streaks, and the ten biggest wins. These records are calculated from the dynasty’s scored games and do not attribute results to user accounts. A 0-0 scheduled game is excluded until a score is entered.

Expand a season to see every team’s record. The champion comes from the saved playoff for that year, so return to the Playoff page if it is missing.
