Saban said on ESPN Game Day, there should only b about 30 teams in top tier

Does this mean P1 might be on the way? Does this mean that some SEC and B1G teams would be cut if so? I used to think 4 Conferences with 16 teams , or 64 total in tier 1, but if Saban sticks with what he said on Game Day, we could be cutting that in ~half. ** Edited by Stech at 5/10/2025, 3:50:46 PM

I bet in his mind it's basically all SEC and B1G teams plus Notre Dame -

Saban won't be making the call on any of this.

P1 will require equity. Revenue sharing, etc.
