The College Football Playoff will remain at four teams for the next four years until the contract expires following the 2025 season.
This means we have four more years of a four team playoff and the earliest we could potentially see expansion for the postseason would be in 2026, but that would hardly be a certainty, either.
I know a lot of the message boards and social media will be filled with fans who are outraged over the fact that the playoff isn’t expanding but personally I’m happy it isn’t.
Six, eight, or 12 teams instead of four aren’t going take away from the dominance of the SEC and the stranglehold they have on the rest of college football. It will mean more meaningful postseason games, sure, but will further water down what is the best regular season in all of sports.
We and the rest of the college wire sites will have more on this throughout the day.
