College Football Playoff reportedly considering expanding to 12-team model

The College Football Playoff is reportedly considering a move that would drastically change football’s postseason model.

A four-member working group is reportedly recommending expanding the current four-team model to 12 teams. The Playoff management committee, comprised of the 10 conference commissioners and Notre Dame athletics director Jack Swarbrick, is expected to hear the recommendation next week in Chicago.

The move was first reported by Sports Illustrated’s Pat Forde and Ross Dellenger along with The Athletic’s Nicole Auerbach.

This would be the first major change to college football’s postseason since the inception of the Playoff format in 2014.
