I am sitting here working and listening to The Herd and Colin just stated emphatically that college football is going to a 24 team playoff.

Is that the case, are we going to a 24 team playoff, if so, when?

And I am all for it.  Either 16 or 24 teams is good with me even though for years I have always advocated for a 16 team playoff. 

RG3 suggested it should be 10 conference champs and then the next 14 by power rating/ranking with the only caveat being no four loss teams get in including conference champs. 

Looks like expansion to 24 teams is all but a done deal. Conferences and teams have agreed and are in negotiations with TV to finalize the money. The negotiation window closes October 9th for this to be in place by next season.

It appears that this may be the last year for Conference Championship Games as that extra week is needed to fit a 24 team playoff into the calendar.

The agreed upon selection format is that the top 23 teams plus 1 G6 (if none are in top 24) team will be in the CFP. Top 8 receive byes with 9-16 hosting first rounds on college campuses.

I love that there aren't a given number of selections tied to any conferences.

The greatest sport in the world continues to marginalize itself, and this has nothing to do with NIL, portals, etc.

The greatest thing about college football was every week meant something. You couldn't afford to jockey for position, slip up, etc. This tournament needs less teams, not more.

Anything for a buck!
