The College Football Playoff Selection Show will reveal the final CFP rankings of the 2022 season. Here’s everything you need to know. 

We’ve finally arrived at the time when the final CFP rankings for the 2022 season will be revealed as the College Football Playoff Selection Show will reveal the final Top 25 and, most importantly, the Top 4 teams that will compete for the National Championship.

It was a wild conference championship weekend for the College Football Playoff rankings. USC entered the week at No. 4 in the last rankings but likely will lose its spot after falling in the Pac-12 title game to Utah on Friday. Meanwhile, TCU also suffered its first loss of the season as it fell in the rematch against TCU in the Big 12 Championship Game.

Georgia and Michigan handled business, though, to remain undefeated and move forward. And that leads us to a dramatic reveal of the final CFP rankings on Sunday with Ohio State and Alabama fans both hoping they are able to sneak in. Will they? Make sure you know everything you need to in order to watch on Sunday for the College Football Playoff Selection Show.

What time does the College Football Playoff Selection Show start?

Make sure you get into your chair early before the NFL kicks off as the College Football Playoff Selection Show will air one hour before kickoff at Noon ET on Sunday, Dec. 4. That gives an hour of coverage on the college football world before the professionals take the field.

As always, ESPN will be broadcasting the final reveal of the CFP rankings thanks to their exclusive partnership with the Playoff. That means it will be available to watch on Watch ESPN streaming as well as the ESPN app.

When are the College Football Playoff rankings actually revealed?

Unlike some selection shows, the College Football Playoff Selection Show doesn’t mess around to build suspense as they have many hours of coverage breaking down the matchups and other bowl games thereafter. As such, you can expect the final CFP rankings to be revealed within the first half hour of the show — at the worst, it should be in the first hour of coverage to avoid conflicting with the NFL on Sunday.

College Football Playoff rankings: Who will be the Top 4 teams?

Here’s what the College Football Playoff rankings are expected to look like on the selection show reveal:

  1. Georgia Bulldogs
  2. Michigan Wolverines
  3. TCU Horned Frogs
  4. Ohio State Buckeyes

Alabama is expected to just miss out on the Top 4 after completing a 10-2 regular season and failing to make the SEC Championship Game. USC should follow behind them after losing in the Pac-12 Championship Game to drop it out of the Top 4.
