There will reportedly be a 12-team College Football Playoff by the start of the 2024 season.
ESPN's Pete Thamel reported the Rose Bowl agreed to amend its contract to allow expansion to occur by the start of the 2024 campaign. The bowl game, which has a central place in college football history, was holding up the process and could have delayed it until 2026.
Dennis Dodd of CBS Sports explained the 10 FBS conferences, Notre Dame and the other New Year's Six Bowls were all in agreement on early expansion for 2024 and 2025.
