Baylor and TCU won't get to play for a national championship, but both teams will play in "New Year's Six" bowls involved in the inaugural College Football Playoff.

The No. 5 Bears will play No. 8 Michigan State in the Goodyear Cotton Bowl Classic, while the No. 6 Horned Frogs will face No. 9 Ole Miss in the Chick-fil-A Peach Bowl.

No. 7 Mississippi State will play No. 12 Georgia Tech in the Capital One Orange Bowl. No. 20 Boise State and No. 10 Arizona will meet in the VIZIO Fiesta Bowl.

In years when the Orange Bowl is not part of the playoff bracket, the game will pair the top remaining ACC team -- in this case Georgia Tech -- against the next highest-ranked nonconference champion from either the SEC or Big Ten, or Notre Dame.

The Cotton Bowl, Fiesta Bowl and Peach Bowl participants are all selected by the playoff committee.
