Big 12 Commissioner Brett Yormark said that "any talk of a change to the College Football Playoff format is ‘very premature.’” Yormark said that they have "got to let this thing play out, see where it goes and then have some thoughtful conversation to follow.” Big Ten and SEC presidents and ADs are scheduled to meet next week in Nashville and on the agenda are “several items, including the preference to have potentially four automatic bids each to the playoff when the next contract begins in 2026.” That would give "guaranteed bids for eight of the 14 playoff spots to the Big Ten and SEC" (HOUSTON CHRONICLE, 10/4).
