Throughout media days the hot topic has been should the College Football Playoff expand to six or eight teams. Head coaches such as Scot Frost and Jim Harbaugh have advocated that eight teams is the way to go. Few P5 head coaches have acknowledged G5 conferences when discussing CFP expansion.
In our slack room the staff discussed which outcome would be best for the inclusion of G5 conferences into the College Football Playoff: Six teams or eight teams?
Josh Farnsworth: I believe 8. Based on how playoff bylaws could be written, could mean auto bid and perhaps some wiggle room for one of the wild cards if another G5 team goes undefeated or wins their conference with a win over a P5.
