Much like a perennial flower, expansion of the College Football Playoff is back in the news this spring.
The CFP management committee recently discussed "some 63 possibilities for change," which included quadrupling the size of the playoff field from four to 16 teams.
CFP executive director Bill Hancock said there will not be expansion this season or the following season, but that it could be six, eight, 10, 12 or even 16 teams when it does happen.
That latter option feels highly unlikely, if only because it took more than a decade of voracious complaining just to get the powers that be to change it from two to four.
