February 20, 20241 yr Author Moderator Why wouldn't the Pac-2 agree to a 5-7 format? The Pac-2 in 2024 and 2025 cannot qualify as a G5 champion. The only way OSU and WSU can make the 12-team field is as an at-large independent like Notre Dame. OSU and WSU will continue to receive the Pac-12's PO payout for the next 2 seasons. Then? College Football Playoff unanimously approves 5+7 model as 12-team format begins in 2024 season - CBSSports.com WWW.CBSSPORTS.COM The changes comes amid the dissolution of the Pac-12, leaving just four power conferences in the mix
February 20, 20241 yr Author Moderator https://collegefootballnews.com/news/college-football-playoff-to-use-5x7-model-great-now-dont-screw-it-up 'Don't screw it up' is spot on. Also, come 2026 it appears that former bowl tie-in agreements will end. If this was the case in 2024/25, No. 1 seed Georgia could opt to play in the Peach Bowl and not have to play in the Sugar Bowl. It's a Playoff. Go to 16 teams in 2026, with one spot reserved for the G5, otherwise as ranked and seeded by the PO Committee. Games at higher seeded teams before the semi-finals are played in the Rose and Sugar Bowls. Revenue share with the players. Champ game location moves between Las Vegas/ Glendale, Indianapolis/ Detroit, Dallas/Houston, and Atlanta/New Orleans. All champ games are played indoors.

February 21, 20241 yr All this pac2 nonsense about access is hilarious. Neither have ever been remotely close to making the playoff to date, their real concern is continued access to unearned money. Those future earnings are about to dry up unless they actually succeed on the field in a sustained fashion. Pound sand pac2. Edited February 21, 20241 yr by JabbaNoBargain
