The College Football Playoff (CFP) needs to expand to eight teams.
No, it shouldn’t do so because I was worried my Wisconsin Badgers wouldn’t get in despite being potential Big Ten champions. It should expand because including four teams — as the current system does — just isn’t enough.
An eight-team playoff would be large enough to include the champions of all five of the Power Five (P5) conferences, plus three at-large bids. Maybe even an undefeated team from one of the smaller Group of Five (G5) conferences could sneak in there, and we could finally have a true Cinderella story in college football.
