College Football "Playoff" to remain at 4 teams through 2025


No need to expand truth be told. Outside of Saban there's parity. Even with the SEC dominance lately there have been different champions in the conference outside of Alabama. All that's missing in the CFP is the Pac 12 getting their stuff together.

It should expand. That’s why there is no parity because players are going to the same school. The talent isn’t spread out how it used to be.

I will never understand why the G5 schools allow themselves to be pimped. What in the hell is the reason of being a FBS school if you’re never going to get a fair shot?

And why is FBS the only sport in earth with 140 teams, but only 4 make the playoffs?

because cartels gonna cartel ... and the Power 5s are essentially operating as a cartel

Pimps have some of the best game in the word.

They LEFT almost a half billion at the table to kept the current deal which only favors the P5 and Notre Dame.

Basketball and baseball would never (the P5 schools hate that they can't increase scholarships from 11.7 in baseball)

Yea they left that on the table but the money is only going up in the next few years. And the players have not always been going to the same schools. Only thing has changed over the years has been what coaches are in what place. We act like Bama was dominating before Saban. Or USC was running the table before or after Pete. Coaching gets the players along with the promise of the NFL.

But this also goes to basketball and baseball, who remember when Georgetown was good or Indiana or Arizona? UCLA just got back up. Yes Gonzaga makes a run but when Few leaves that's it. And in baseball Miami has never gotten back up and they are in a baseball hotbed.

So the system in football has always favored the bigger schools (money) but there is parity among those schools. G5 schools just need their own championship if anything. Not since the days of Army and Navy has smaller schools actually stood a real chance.
 
This is all about power and control they even left money on the table; the P5 doesn't want to share with any school outside the one's in those conferences and TD Jesus University who has been living off its past glory for a 100 years.
 

With NCAA Embroiled in Chaos, Notre Dame’s Swarbrick Calls Division I Breakup ‘Inevitable’​

Notre Dame athletic director Jack Swarbrick told Sports Illustrated that he believes the breakup of college sports at the NCAA Division I level is “inevitable,” and puts a potential target date on that seismic change as the mid-2030s. Swarbrick also said there are “so many” schools trying to leave their current conferences, but they’re handcuffed by existing contracts.

And when those contractual obligations begin to run out, that’s when big changes could occur.

“Absent a national standard, which I don’t see coming, I think it’s inevitable,” Swarbrick said. “Mid-30s would be the logical time.”

Should the schism come, Notre Dame would be among those that still tied its athletics to the educational mission of the school and answered to its president and academic administration. Others could essentially be spun off while retaining the school name and branding. A theoretical example (not proffered by Swarbrick): Oregon Ducks Athletics, Inc.

The SEC’s destabilizing acquisition of Texas and Oklahoma played a role in halting progress toward a 12-team College Football Playoff, a concept Swarbrick helped bring to the table last June. He, SEC commissioner Greg Sankey, Mountain West Conference commissioner Craig Thompson and Big 12 commissioner Bob Bowlsby formed the subcommittee that came up with the plan.

After initially being hailed as a welcome expansion in many circles, the Big Ten, ACC and Pac-12 eventually expressed concerns and dug in as unified opposition. That led to a series of unproductive CFP meetings that Swarbrick described as, “the single oddest thing I’ve ever been through.”

The NCAA needs to step in. This is ridiculous. What is their purpose ATP?
The ND Athletic Director has to be talking about the ACC schools...lol
I think everything will happen before 2030.
 



They are getting their ducks in a row for 2025 or 2026. The ND AD talking about 2030s is out to lunch. I've been saying on this board for a while now that the NCAA is a dying institution and HBCUs need to go their own way. If you read the NIL case, Justice Kavanaugh wrote it, and it's hard to read that and think the NCAA is coming back. We have have a majority conservative SCOTUS right now and the NIL case was decided 9-0. See what I mean? https://www.supremecourt.gov/opinions/20pdf/20-512_gfbh.pdf
