24 to 28 team playoff with ACC getting 5-auto bids? B1G says yes!

So the SEC and B1G would get 7 auto bids each, ACC and B12 get 5 auto bids each and 2 for the G6 and 2 at large. I gotta say, I'm in favor of it. No more CCG's though. I think it would be easier to finish in the top 5 of the ACC, than the top 7 of the SEC or B1G. ** Edited by ChrisLords at 8/17/2025, 1:01:30 AM

How does a 28 team playoff work?

Probably the same format as the NCAA DI Playoffs which is a 20-team playoff

That's a 24 team playoff. So in a 28 team playoff, 4 teams get byes and 24

Yes, it would be 12 First Round games if they follow the same format as the

FCS has 24 team playoffs. Div 2 has 32 and D3 has 40 teams**

I don't love it, but it would probably keep the ACC together.**

8 team playoff. Quit ruining the regular season!**

the bowl system was far more entertaining than this stuff.**

Up to 16 won’t “ruin the regular season” it actually makes more games
hokiepro • 08/17/25 01:12 PM ET
5 Conference champions + 3 at large. Leave it alone**
PowerEye • 08/18/25 11:31 AM ET
The regular season has already been made worse.**

So; Ohio St-Texas, LSU-Clemson, SC-VT, Bama-FSU

20 playoff games on campus is a huge selling point
HokieAl • 08/17/25 08:43 AM ET
This is the ONLY reason I have as a “plus” for that large of a field**

Officially? No. This won’t fly IMO

You left out inane timeout antics and incessant 80 decibel [drivel].
