College Football Playoff approves 5+7 format and reduces spots for conference champions
The move to decrease the number of conference champion spots from six to five was prompted by the realignment and disassembling of the Pac-12.
apnews.com
While the four highest-ranked conference champions get a first-round bye, teams seeded fifth through 12th will open the postseason on the home field of the higher-ranked team — No. 5 vs. No. 12; No. 6 vs. No. 11; No. 7 vs. No. 10; and No. 8 vs. No. 9. The first of those four games will be on Dec. 20, a Friday night, with the other three first-round contests played the next day.
New Year’s Six bowl games will host the quarterfinals and semifinal playoff games. The first quarterfinal game next season will be New Year’s Eve in the Fiesta Bowl, followed on New Year’s Day by the Peach Bowl, Rose Bowl and Sugar Bowl. The Orange Bowl on Jan. 9, and the Cotton Bowl on Jan. 10, will be the semifinal sites.
The national championship will remain at a neutral site, with next season’s title game Jan. 20 in Atlanta.
The CFP management committee, which is composed of 10 conference commissioners and Notre Dame athletic director Jack Swarbrick, is scheduled to meet in person Wednesday in the Dallas area. Topics could include the still-pending $1.3 billion, six-year deal between ESPN and the CFP that would allow the network to keep exclusive rights to the 12-team playoff through the 2031 season.

Not a good trend. Hopefully Blue's ready to shoulder the load...

Franklin's 11th season with PS. He's coming off back to back 10 win seasons. Franklin hired a new OC & pretty much cleaned house.
Let's see if he can finally get over that 10 win hurdle & take this #8 team in the country to the playoffs! Last time WV defeated PS....

Son of Prime Slime showing all class last night, leaves the field with over two mins remaining because they got their asses kicked.
Deion's time as a HC should be coming to an end soon. Dude is a horrendous HC.
Need any further proof that Zoners are fucking idiots? They have fans there that WANT Deion as HC of Cowboys and his son as QB.

I might have gotten "headlined" since I didnt read the article. It it appears a big chunk is related to a lawsuit filed against him when he was 15 so hopefully that goes away. I mistakenly assumed he'd managed to make enough money to leverage that much debt, my bad
