Watch college football on DAZN free (ex US, China)
We are in Championship Week of the 2025 college football season, and you can see all the exciting action on DAZN for FREE, including the complete College Football Playoff and CFP National Championship (check your region for availability).
The 2025 playoffs will be different, as 12 teams will now vie for a spot in the National Championship game on Jan. 19, 2026, in Miami. The first four teams will automatically get a bye into the quarterfinals.
There is plenty on the line this week. Heading into the biggest week of the regular season, who would be on the road to Miami and who would be on the outside looking in? Would Notre Dame be in? How about Alabama? Will Lane Kiffin turn his back on Ole Miss and bolting to LSU shrink their chances?
