Urban Meyer Backs 24-Team Playoff But Warns of Its Biggest Flaw: “They’re Gone”

Former head coach Urban Meyer has shifted his stance to support a 24-team College Football Playoff, acknowledging the high level of parity currently seen in the sport. Despite this change of heart, he expressed significant concern that the expansion will necessitate the removal of conference championship games, a tradition he views as essential to the game's history and value.

Former Alabama coach Nick Saban has also voiced opposition to the 24-team model, arguing that the shift is driven by financial interests rather than the preservation of collegiate traditions. Meyer emphasized that the loss of these title games would be a major blow to the sport, as they represent some of the most meaningful experiences for players and coaches alike.
