Welcome to Before The Snap, For The Win’s college football series where we’ll break down the sport’s trending storylines, examine each week’s biggest matchups and track the College Football Playoff and Heisman Trophy races.
Last week, big College Football Playoff news broke! The playoff is looking to expand from four teams to 12 in 2026, but the expansion could happen as soon as 2024, as ESPN reported Friday.
Some fans were happy with the top-4 teams making it, some wanted eight teams, others wanted 12 or even 16. But it looks like 12 is what we’re getting in the somewhat near-ish future.
But are 12 teams too many or not enough? What will that look like for season schedules? And should players get a cut from all the new revenue?
On this week’s episode of Before The Snap, we dive into it. Plus, we’re looking ahead to No. 9 Baylor taking on No. 21 BYU on the road in Week 2.
