Keep getting stuff too, got control of the CFP and $ less than a year ago.

If we stay with 12 in the playoff, it will be because the SEC doesn’t want it. Every other conference is ready to vote for it. They probably don’t want any other conference to get multiple bids. If Indiana wins Monday night, especially if another blowout, they are going to be very very unhappy IMHO. SEC power is real though, even if they haven’t made the National Championship game in 3 years, 2 of them during the expanded playoff.
