How are FCS playoff teams selected?

The NCAA Division I Football Championship provides a field of 24 teams to compete in a single-elimination tournament. Of the 24 teams, conference champions will receive automatic qualifications with the remaining best teams being selected on an at-large basis by the Division I Football Championship Committee.

The top eight teams in the 24-team bracket for the championship are seeded and receive first-round byes.

Team pairings are determined according to geographical proximity. Teams from the same conference will not be paired for first-round games or for second-round games when both teams are playing their first games of the championship (except for teams from the same conference that did not play against each other during the regular season; such teams may play each other in the first and second round).
