Yes... but only if some crazy shenanigans like this past year doesn't happen. I think at least one three-loss team is probably getting in in any given year. If Clemson (3-losses) did not win the ACC last year it would have been one of the 3-loss SEC teams that gets in that did not win their conference. Clemson jumped on in and SMU held onto their spot because they only had 2-losses (one being the Conference Championship game). So I think it is completely possible for a 3-loss team without a conference championship to get into the playoff... but being that team is going to come down to some unique circumstances and some quality wins.

What’s the hang up here? Does anyone know? On the surface, having 1/4 of the NIL budget of the top teams in your conference in a revenue generating sport does not seem like a successful strategy.

Staples is a Gator. I see a Florida team with talent, but also with one of the two or three toughest schedules in the nation. The Gators play LSU, Miami, A&M, Kentucky, and Ole Miss on the road. Georgia in Atlanta. (The stadium in Jacksonville is being renovated; the 2026 Cocktail Party will be played in Tampa.) Florida plays Texas, Tennessee, and FSU in the Swamp. UF has gimme wins vs. LIU (Long Island U Sharks ), USF, and Mississippi State. I hope Andy is correct, especially OBD hosting a home game, but with this schedule, I can find three losses for Florida. Will the Committee in 2025-26 find a 3-loss team that did not win its conference PO worthy?

Thanks HDuck. Here’s an article to go along with what you posted. Six schools made postseason in all major sports during 2024-25 Six teams were able to lay claim to having made the postseason in all major college sports. This includes men’s and women’s basketball, football, volleyball, softball and baseball. To qualify for this list, the school must have been bowl eligible during the college football season. They don’t have to have qualified for the College Football Playoff. Elsewhere, each school must have appeared in the NCAA Tournament in each of the major sports. In the end, six schools made the final list. Here’s who made the cut: Six schools made postseason in all major sports during 2024-25 - On3 WWW.ON3.COM Six schools were able to make the postseason in all major sports: football, men's and women's basketball, baseball, softball and volleyball. Just as Texas did in the SEC, Oregon had to adjust to a brand new conference for each respective season. They did so and then some. Notably, Texas, Tennessee and Oregon not only made the postseason in each major sport — but they also made the College Football Playoffs. As the Ducks dominated the Big Ten in football, the volleyball, men’s and women’s basketball, softball and baseball teams have all done their part as well. Oregon is one of 16 baseball teams set to host a regional in the NCAA Tournament, while the softball team is headed to the Women’s College World Series. Both basketball programs and volleyball team each were able to find enough success to make their respective tournaments as well.

YIKES!

USC-Notre Dame annual rivalry game in jeopardy after 2026 I think they will agree to continue the series and play in the early part of the season. There is too much money at stake for both programs, which is ultimately what talks nowadays. Go Irish!

3 men's sports, 3 women's - and seems to be the sports with most D1 schools participating. Not meant to diminish other sports such as men's wrestling, but wrestling for example has much fewer schools participating and what would be the women's equivalent to make 4 men's, 4 women's?

Oregon Ducks' Jacob Walsh Wants Autzen Crowd For NCAA Baseball Tournament In PK Park The Oregon Ducks baseball team is gearing up for the NCAA Regional with a major advantage—home-field energy at PK Park.

Top Oregon Ducks who could be featured on EA Sports College Football 27 cover It's fun to think about which Oregon Ducks could be on the cover in the future. When considering candidates, there is a tight needle to thread. You need to find someone who produces on the field and is also returning for another year in 2026. That whittles down the list quite a bit for the Ducks, but there are still some prime players who could very well be on the cover next year. Here's our best guess as to who could earn the honor: Top Oregon Ducks who could be featured on EA Sports College Football 27 cover DUCKSWIRE.USATODAY.COM The Oregon Ducks have a handful of players who could realistically make the cover of EA Sports College Football 27. EA Sports released photos of the two covers of the video game. The standard version of the game will have Smith and Williams as the cover athletes. The deluxe version will have Williams and Smith front-and-center, along with many figures key to college football, including Notre Dame's Marcus Freeman, Ole Miss' Lane Kiffin and former USC star and Heisman Trophy winner Reggie Bush.

Big Ten Trojan Horse Lures SEC Toward Lame College Football Playoff Format The Big Ten’s preferred playoff model is a trojan horse for the SEC. And still, the SEC keeps inching toward the horse’s belly. If the Big Ten gets its way, the College Football Playoff would move in 2026 toward a format in which more bids are awarded via automatic selection. The idea works like this: In a 16-team field, the Big Ten and SEC would get four automatic bids apiece, the ACC and Big 12 would get two auto bids apiece, the Group of Five would get one auto bid, and that leaves three at-large bids up for grabs. In many years, Notre Dame would snag one of the three at-large bids. It’s easy to understand why the ACC and Big 12 dislike this model. It preassigns twice as many automatic bids to the Big Ten and SEC before the season even kicks off. It’s a model based more on conference brand prestige than in-season meritocracy. What’s more difficult to comprehend is the SEC's swelling support for this model.

https://maaw.info/GadgetsandGames/APFinalFootballRankings.htm Fun game, pick any random year from 1950 on. It’s almost impossible to land on a year that doesn’t have a top-10 with at least 6 teams currently in the Big-2. More often than not you’ll find 7-8 such teams. If FSU, Miami, and ND were to move to the big-2 the ratio becomes ridiculous.

Big Ten coach has high expectations for Oregon Football QB Dante Moore in 2025 In an interview with Athlon Sports Magazine, an anonymous Big Ten coach echoed that sentiment, having this to say about Moore and his early expectations in Eugene. “They’re pretty hyped on the quarterback [Dante Moore], who they’ve had in the system for a season already, which is a huge advantage," the coach said. "This isn’t modifying your book for a guy you get out of the portal; it’s a talented, developed player who already knows your system. I think that will show early on this season.” Big Ten coach has high expectations for Oregon Football QB Dante Moore in 2025 DUCKSWIRE.USATODAY.COM Oregon Ducks quarterback Dante Moore enters the 2025 season with high expectations, but he's getting early praise from an anonymous Big Ten coach.

All the talking heads keep saying: The Big Ten and SEC control everything – format and financials – beginning in 2026 for the CFP. Is that all "talk" or is there some contract language that makes it so? I guess they could say to the rest of college football, we are taking our ball on only going to play with the B1G and SEC, but that seems like cutting off your nose to spite your face. I know the NFL only has 32 teams, but having only 34 teams decide the NCAA championship isn't enough?
