The CFP has issued a new policy in response to the surging omicron virus. It allows a team to advance to the championship - and ultimately win it - if opponents have to forfeit, according to its updated set of COVID-19 policies. More from CFBHeather ⬇️
If one of those four semifinalists is unable to participate because of a COVID-19 outbreak, the unavailable team will forfeit and its opponent will advance to the national championship.
If both teams are unavailable to play in a semifinal game, it would be declared a no contest and the winner of the other semifinal game would be declared the CFP national champion. If three semifinal teams are unable to play, the remaining healthy team would win its game by forfeit and be declared the CFP national champion.
The CFP also updated its policies for on-site, as athletic directors at each school have to certify that each person with access to the field on game day has tested negative for COVID-19 within 72 hours of the kickoff, or has been fully vaccinated. According to the new policies, each school will use the same testing arrangement it used during the regular season, and arrange for testing at the game site.
