The College Football Playoff (CFP) has officially announced that it will not alter the dates of the semifinal games or the Orange Bowl, despite requests from the SEC. SEC Commissioner Greg Sankey had suggested a potential switch in schedules due to various delays, including the postponement of the Sugar Bowl. This decision means that the semifinal bracket remains unchanged for 2025, and the CFP has denied multiple requests for rescheduling. The SEC continues to discuss the implications of these decisions, particularly concerning the Cotton Bowl and Orange Bowl.
