FCS playoffs

The FCS (Football Championship Subdivision) playoffs are an annual postseason tournament to determine the national champion in college football's FCS division. Teams earn spots based on their regular-season performance, conference championships, and at-large bids. The playoff typically features 16 teams that compete in a single-elimination format, meaning one loss eliminates a team. Winners advance through rounds until two teams reach the national championship game. It's a highly competitive process that showcases the best teams in FCS, culminating in crowning a national champion through intense, high-stakes games.
