2025 CFP Preview and 12-Team Bracket Breakdown Every Fan Needs to Read

College football is back and every fan base is lying to itself. Tailgates, takeovers, and hot takes are live. The 12 team College Football Playoff changes everything. It rewards roster depth, coaching, and the teams that can win multiple do-or-die games in a row. I parsed SP+ projections, returning production, blue chip ratios, and tape so you do not have to. This is the bracket I believe in, the conference winners I see, and the full game by game path to a champion.
