Texas A&M’s Jimbo Fisher favors expanded CFP playoff, offers thoughts on superconferences

expanding the College Football Playoff“I think it’s got to be at least 12, but I wouldn’t be against 16,” he said Sunday while speaking at the 90th Texas High School Coaches Association Convention and Coaching School.

He pointed to the excitement that it would create at the end of the season and how it could create a more level playing field. “At the end of the year, when you’ve got four [going to the playoff], there are two or three other teams legit — maybe four in a great year — [that also have a chance to get in],” Fisher said. “But if you’ve got 16 [playoff teams], there are going to be 30, 35 teams that would legitimately have a chance to get into that playoff. If you set up TV ratings based on 30 some teams [being in the hunt], that is going to help TV and revenue.

“It will help recruiting, knowing that other programs can get in the playoff. I think you’ll disperse the talent level.”Texas A&M was left out of the playoff in the 2020 season after winning its final seven games of the regular season following a loss to eventual national champion Alabama in Week 2. Fisher said that team, which finished 9-1 after beating North Carolina in the Orange Bowl, was the second-best team in the country.
