Previous Message Pete Thamel said the committee has had discussions of expanding to 14 teams in 2026. Previous Message The College Football Playoff board of managers unanimously approved a new 12-team format Tuesday. The format will feature the five highest-ranked conference champions and seven at-large participants for 2024 and 2025. No conference will be guaranteed a berth, and there'll be no limits on the number of participants from any conference. ••• Under the new format, the four highest-ranked conference champions will receive first-round byes. Teams that face off in the first round will play at the home field of the higher-ranked program: No. 5 will host No. 12, No. 6 will play No. 11, No. 7 will host No. 10, and No. 9 will visit No. 8. Quarterfinal and semifinal games will be played in New Year's Six bowl games, while the CFP National Championship will remain a neutral-site contest. https://www.thescore.com/ncaaf/news/2849153
