College Football Playoff Clashes With NFL Games

The 2026-27 College Football Playoff schedule will once again put college and pro football in direct competition on December 19, with three CFP games overlapping with NFL's Week 15 lineup.

The CFP begins on December 18 with no NFL games scheduled, but on December 19, college football will air games at noon, 3:30, and 7:30 ET. The 3:30 and 7:30 games will compete directly with the NFL's Seahawks-Eagles matchup at 4 p.m. on Fox and Bears-Bills game at 7:20 on CBS. The college games will broadcast on TNT. amunra-online.pl

This head-to-head scheduling has occurred since the College Football Playoff expanded to 12 teams two years ago, with NFL games consistently outdrawing their college counterparts in ratings. Despite the competition, both leagues maintain their scheduling decisions.
