UNC Football: Players Were Opposed to 12-Team CFP Expansion

North Carolina Tar Heels football head coach Mack Brown held a lengthy press conference this week, discussing topics ranging from NIL (Name, Image, Likeness) being introduced to the program, expectations for the upcoming season, and what his players have been up to.

The NIL discussion was quite interesting, including the details surrounding individual player marketing and the role of agents, but that’s a topic for another time.

Brown also included a tidbit about the proposed 12-team College Football Playoff expansion: the UNC players are opposed to it.

Let’s back up for a second: as a reminder, last month, the CFP management committee proposed expanding the current four team playoff to 12 teams.
