Source: CFP officials have been informed that the Rose Bowl has signed an agreement that will allow the College Football Playoff to expand to 12 teams in 2024 and 2025.

Been wanting at least 16 teams since the BCS days but this is a step in the right direction.

12 might be 4 too many imo but I’ll take it.

That's too many but I understand the business aspect for it.

Lol won't be as cheap to get a non-Peach/Rose Bowl ticket now

Perfect

No more weak a*s sec teams cruising to championships

Mid Majors

So we will get 4 SEC teams, 4 B10 teams, 2Big 12 teams, and a 1 ACC, and 1 PAC 12 team realistically.

They're gonna water it down for the extra money. I remember all those previous years where Alabama would always stomp out the number four team; we're gonna have a lot of those type of games.

Chris Pedersen came a decade too early. He would have won a natty under these rules.

12 is way too many man

12 is a lot, but it's also good to give the top teams an advantage with an incentive to keep their foot on the gas late in the season.

Too many teams.

I’d rather have 6 in all realness.

Top 2 get a bye. Bottom 4 duke it out.

Still don’t like automatic conference championship qualifiers, either.

Folks complaining about 12 being too many when in fact it should be 16.
Why not follow the HS State Playoff formula in most states.
There are 130 FBS programs who are eligible to compete for the national championship and folks in here complaining about 12 teams being too many? lol smh

Watered down nonsense and the same teams will make it to the end. 16-12 team Playoffs got kids adding an extra 2-3 games to potentially get hurt and ruin their draft chances. If you’re going to do that, it’s time they start handing out playoff pay.

As is, the current formula still has the two best teams smacking the first round opponents. Don’t remember a good 1/4 or 2/3 match up since the inception… y’all want a 3 loss Baylor to get their sh*t pushed in by Bama or Georgia?

6 is ideal. 8, whatever… I like the idea of rewarding the top 2 teams with a week off and letting the pretenders battle it out.

Nah 16 would be lit! I always feel that a smaller less known school would have a chance to run the table one day just like in basketball.

Imagine if they ran it exactly like March madness. Just have a few less games during the regular season then start the brackets! There can be even more brand sponsors for the early rounds and bring in the more familiar bowls during the elite 8 and final 4

Should've been an expanded playoffs already but Pac-12 kept holding onto the Rose Bowl for dear life and now is the one conference still in the playoff picture that could play themselves out if USC loses to Utah

At least they're at the right conclusion now

We knew it would happen. Too many what if scenarios

Mid majors get more opportunities.

Yea I agree
6-8 is the sweet spot to me.
12 would mean a team like Washington gets in this season which isn’t necessary

It's a shame folks are brainwashed into believing the same ol 5 teams are only worthy of competing for National Championships

Perfect, I would take more! As suggested in here.

Crazy things happen when teams play for real things! This is good news true college Football heads. I had to crate dig for this footage. sh*t happens on that football field.

too many teams lmao "power 5" conferences like the trash ACC got 0 teams in the playoffs lol so they want major conferences to get at least 1 team in the playoffs

No one complaining about 68 in CBB but 12 is too many to compete for a title in CFB?

The last two seasons, Ohio State has played Michigan with the stakes being, "The winner is in the playoff, the loser is not" (yeah, it's still possible that Ohio State gets in this year). Those stakes will be gone in the future. Both of those teams (win or lose) would still be in "the 12".

Folks just need to admit that it's not about "the sport", they're just here to be entertained.
