No as will be less regular season revenue

24 teams means the regular season will be diminished. Less fans will attend the games thus less gate and concessions revenue. Also, less fans will watch the regular season. That means less media revenue. So it would be diminishing returns from the bump up from 24 teams. I do like the same automatic qualifiers though for all conferences. I see the Big 12 and ACC vote yes, Big 10 (Fox) yes, SEC no.

If they staged a 24-team playoff, 19 of the teams would be P2.**

If I pay you $20M if we go to 24 teams, are you okay with it?**
Stech • 10/29/25 04:25 PM ET
$20M per team for each game in the first two rounds, or...
EDGEMAN • 10/30/25 10:10 AM ET

More teams in the hunt
Big12 guy • 10/30/25 11:20 AM ET
Yeah, I can see this. Overall, still a watered-down regular season
HouClone • 10/30/25 03:24 PM ET
Na, it's the 3 loss teams that will make it from
Big12 guy • 10/30/25 03:45 PM ET
Admittedly 24 is a lot, but the money they will make, will be a lot too, so

8 should have been the number
