College football is far from perfect, but it cannot be denied that the NCAA is willing to make changes when needed. There is no better example of that than how it changed the way a champion is determined, from simply using polls in the olden days to the regretful BCS era to the current College Football Playoff.
This upcoming season will somehow mark the 10th (!) iteration of the CFP already, but this will be the end of the four-team bracket. Starting in 2024-25, the field will be (rightfully) expanded to 12 teams, with the six highest-ranked conference champions and six best at-large teams all entering the postseason.
