More than 16 teams is bad. 12 is good. Big 10 wanting more due to Fox

not getting the CFP so they can bid on these extra games. Plus, I still see Petitti angling for cross over regular season games with the SEC. These non-conference games are going to be boring if there is no at-large component factored in to the CFP. Tony "Participation" Petitti was working for the MLB when they expanded to 3 wildcard games. MLB used to be one team gets in for each league, then they made it two when they went to divisions. Then they added a wildcard. Then, they added 2 more wildcards. So not surprising that Participation Tony wants more playoff teams, diluting the regular season.

If you mean, SEC would have way more teams than the other conferences agree**

That plus if the other conferences had to pick a side, then they know where
