The four College Football Playoff teams for the 2022-23 season were decided via a voting procedure by the CFP committee. The committee agreed on four teams to play in the postseason primarily based on the teams' strength of schedule. Other factors that weighed into the decision-making included conference championships, team records, and head-to-head results.

Georgia secured the No. 1 spot in the rankings with a 50-30 victory over Louisiana State in the Southeastern Conference championship game. The Michigan Wolverines beat Purdue 43-22 in the Big Ten title, going 13-0 for the season.

Texas University lost to Kansas State in overtime in the Big 12 title game but still held their playoff berth. Ohio State was able to swoop back into the top four of the rankings following USC’s loss to Utah in the Pac-12 title game.
