Not much traction for the four-team College Football Playoff to expand to eight teams

You'll get an argument from football coaches Art Briles of Baylor and Gary Patterson of TCU, but two Big Five conference commissioners and a College Football Playoff selection committee member thinks four teams is enough for a playoff.

Pac-12 commissioner Larry Scott and CFP selection committee chairman Condoleeza Rice said Wednesday as keynote speakers at the Stanford Graduate School of Business Sports Innovation Conference that more than four teams is not a good idea.

Last season was the first year of the CFP. No. 4 seed Ohio State beat No. 2 seed Oregon in the championship game.
