NEW ORLEANS, La. -- Following a joint meeting between athletic directors representing their respective conferences on Wednesday, SEC commissioner Greg Sankey and Big Ten commissioner Tony Petitti said they agreed the way teams are seeded in the 12-team College Football Playoff should change this fall.
While the voices of the two wealthiest and most powerful conferences certainly carry weight, any changes for the 2025 season have to be unanimously agreed upon by the 10 FBS commissioners and Notre Dame athletic director Pete Bevacqua.
"I'm prepared to vote for seeding change, but it has to be unanimous," Sankey said.
