Social media reacts to shocking Big Ten College Football Playoff idea
College Football Playoff expansion has been a talking point since the original four-team playoff debuted in 2014.
The playoff just recently expanded from four to 12 teams, but it might not be done there. On Saturday, reports emerged about an idea from the Big Ten concerning expansion. And it's a pretty wild concept.
According to reports, the Big Ten is pushing for a 24- to 28-team playoff. Yes, you're reading that right, there are no typos. Twenty-four to 28 teams.
The 28-team playoff plan would feature seven automatic bids for the Big Ten and SEC, five automatic bids for the ACC and Big 12, two for Group of Six squads and a pair of at-large bids. The proposed idea generated plenty of feedback from college football fans, and it seems the majority has spoken.
