The College Football Playoff is planning to expand its format to include 24 teams, according to a report published Monday by SB Nation. The announcement comes as the postseason structure continues to evolve following Michigan's victory in the 2024 CFP National Championship game on January 8, 2024, at NRG Stadium in Houston, Texas.
The Wolverines captured the title in the final edition of the four-team playoff era before the scheduled expansion to 12 teams for the 2024 season. The proposed move to a 24-team field would represent another significant enlargement of college football's postseason tournament.
Details regarding the timeline, selection process, and bracket structure for the 24-team format were not immediately disclosed in the initial report by Anthony Parker.
