With Brian Kelly’s statements over the weekend regarding playoff expansion, and rumblings that ADs and others are calling for the system to grow, it would seem that, despite statements by the executive director of the College Football Playoff to the contrary, the playoff may be in expansion mode sooner rather than later.
However, it might not be the playoff itself that is the problem, but the way that teams are choosing to (or required by other constraints) to get there. UCF was left out again despite an undefeated season because the Knights are not in a major conference.
