PASADENA, Calif. — The name says it all: College Football Playoff.

The major college football conference commissioners named the new postseason system that starts in 2014 on Tuesday, the first of three days of meetings at a resort hotel in the Rose Bowl’s backyard.

Out with the Bowl Championship Series and in with the College Football Playoff.

“I don’t think you can ever go too wrong calling something what it is,” Pac-12 Commissioner Larry Scott said. “Things that make sense tend to stand the test of time.”

Next on the agenda is to pick three more bowls for the six-bowl semifinal rotation — the Rose, Orange and Sugar are already in — and where the first championship game will be held on Jan. 12, 2015. That comes Wednesday.
