* If the ACC Champion is not in one of the semifinal games it will appear in the Orange Bowl, or, if the Orange Bowl is a semifinal or national championship site, one of the Playoff "host" bowls, either the Fiesta, Cotton or Chick-fil-A Peach. There is no limit on how many teams the College Football Playoff may choose from a particular conference.
** Only if the ACC opponent in the Orange Bowl, in a non-semifinal year is a team from the Big Ten, a maximum of three times in six years.
*** After the 2014 and 2016 seasons; all others as conditional selection if not filled by C-USA or The American.
**** Conditional all years if not filled by SEC or The American.
***** The Gator Bowl has first choice of ACC or Big Ten representatives. The conference that the Gator Bowl does not choose sends their representative to the Music City Bowl instead.
