SEC And Big 10 Championship Losers Should Get In CFP, Or System Is Already Broken | Barrett Sallee

College Football Playoff expansion is coming. The only question is when.

The College Football Playoff has been a success since its inception in 2014. It has created more excitement and drama at the end of the regular season, and it has given more teams a chance to compete for a national championship.

However, the current four-team format is too small. There are too many deserving teams that are left out every year. This is especially true for teams from the SEC and Big 10, which are the two best conferences in college football.

In 2022, the SEC and Big 10 championship losers were both left out of the College Football Playoff.

The SEC champion, Georgia, lost to Alabama in the SEC Championship Game. The Big 10 champion, Michigan, lost to Purdue in the Big 10 Championship Game.

Both Georgia and Michigan were deserving of a spot in the College Football Playoff. They were both ranked in the top four of the College Football Playoff rankings. They both had impressive resumes, and they both played in tough conferences.

However, they were both left out of the College Football Playoff because of the current four-team format. This is a major flaw in the system. It is unfair to teams from the SEC and Big 10, and it prevents the best teams from competing for a national championship.

The College Football Playoff needs to be expanded to eight teams.

This would give more deserving teams a chance to compete for a national championship. It would also create more excitement and drama at the end of the regular season.

There are many different ways to expand the College Football Playoff to eight teams. One option would be to have the top four teams in the College Football Playoff rankings receive a bye, and then have the next four teams play in a quarterfinal round.

Another option would be to have the top eight teams in the College Football Playoff rankings play in a single-elimination tournament.

No matter how the College Football Playoff is expanded, it is clear that it needs to happen. The current four-team format is too small, and it is preventing the best teams from competing for a national championship.
