On Sunday, the 4-team College Football Playoff bracket will be revealed live on ESPN. How does this affect Liberty? The trickle down from the CFP will determine the outcome of the rest of the bowl lineup, Liberty included.

The most important part for the Flames will be who gets the Cotton Bowl bid as the Group of Five’s highest ranked team. If this ends up being Memphis, as it should, the trickle down affect will likely mean Liberty is headed to the Cure Bowl. That is, unless someone like UCF wants to stay home and play in the Cure Bowl.
