Rules:
1.The four teams that made the playoff are the top seeds (Alabama, Clemson, Ohio State, and Oklahoma).
2.Like in the basketball tournament, the top two seed cannot play with the top one seed.
3.Also, I tried my best to not put any of the top four seeded teams together that were in the same conference, but some were inevitable.
4.1, 2, 3, and 4 seeds will host first and second round match ups. Bowl game sites will be used for Sweet 16, Elite 8, Final Four, and the national championship.
Schedule for hypothetical tournament:
First and second round games are played Thursday December 17, 2020-Sunday December 20, 2020
Sweet 16 and Elite 8 games are played Thursday December 24, 2020 2020-Sunday December 27, 2021

College Football Playoff National Championship is played on Monday January 11, 2021
