College Football Playoff Format to Change Again; Pac-12's Future Uncertain as 5 Universities Depart
TL;DR
The CFB Playoff is expected to change its format again before the next season, with a shift in the selection process. The collapse of the Pac-12 is a major reason for the change, and the SEC and Big Ten are likely to favor more than a minor adjustment. The current plan for the 2024 season includes automatic bids for the top six conference champions, but there is debate over whether this is the right approach. Some argue for a 12-team format with no automatic qualifiers, while others believe including underdog teams would be good for business and television ratings.
