This position was reiterated amidst increasing discussions surrounding a potential expansion to a 24-team format, a proposal initially put forth by the Big Ten. While various stakeholders involved in the CFP appear open to considering the 24-team model, Sankey's statement underscores a divergence in views regarding the optimal size of the playoff field. The discussions surrounding CFP expansion remain ongoing.
