Could the SEC's Greg Sankey and the B1G's Tony Petitti Take the Playoff Ball and Go Home? Great CFB Update.

Recommended Posts

A lengthy but thorough article tapping into the state of the college football (CFB) game regarding the playoff, litigation, and where the money is going. The B1G and the SEC continue to distance themselves from the rest of CFB. With the Power 2 conferences bringing the majority of the playoff money the gap will widen.

The proposed Super League has no appeal whatsoever for the B1G, SEC, ESPN, and Fox and was dead on arrival. The B1G and the SEC are a Super League, with each conference expected to expand to 20 to 24 teams without an equal distribution among conference members. Teams will 'eat what they kill.'  Teams with more invested in the Money Ball sports will see a bigger return on the investment than teams that are unwilling or unable to invest the same amounts. Teams most likely will agree to employer status which will winnow out more of the lesser programs. In other words, the business of CFB will be run like a business and not a collective.
