The leadership for the Group of Five schools in FBS college football is set to discuss the possibility of implementing a secondary championship to complement the College Football Playoff.
According to Ross Dellenger of Yahoo Sports, Group of Five commissioners will meet next week in Dallas, and one of the main talking points will be the idea of giving G5 teams something of significance to play for outside of the CFP.
Mountain West commissioner Gloria Nevarez compared the concept to the NIT in college basketball, which is an annual tournament that includes several of the best teams to not make the NCAA tournament.
