INDIANAPOLIS -- Nebraska coach Matt Rhule said the Big Ten should have four teams in the 12-team College Football Playoff every year because of how difficult the league will be with the additions of USC, UCLA, Washington and Oregon.

The 18-team Big Ten will play a nine-game conference schedule without divisions, and the five highest-ranked conference champions will earn a spot in the playoff along with the next seven highest-ranked teams.

"In the Big Ten we have to go to someone else's stadium in our league five times and duke it out," Rhule said.
