SEC’s Greg Sankey doesn’t think realignment moves have stalled playoff expansion talks

The College Football Playoff management committee meets Wednesday in Dallas to continue discussions over the expansion of the current postseason model.

The group, which is composed of the 10 conference commissioners and Notre Dame athletics director Jack Swarbrick, has been gathering information on a proposal submitted by a working group in June to expand the format from a four-team model to 12 teams.

But after an initial groundswell of enthusiasm for the move, momentum behind a change has suddenly slowed particularly after Texas and Oklahoma announced they were leaving the Big 12 Conference to join the SEC in 2025.
