CFP expansion has bumpy road ahead

Last month the College Football Playoff Management Committee presented an initial proposal to expand the playoff to 12 teams.

The largest incentive for expansion is increased revenue which Dennis Dodd of CBS Sports estimated could jump to over $1 Billion with the addition of eight more teams and eight more games.

The move means that a team could potentially play a 17 game college season which pushes television money through the roof.

But there are a lot of questions the management committee is seeking to answer before it makes a formal presentation to the CFP Board of Governors in September.
