Those that hoped the Faculty Soccer Playoff would come to its senses had their hopes dashed on Monday.
ESPN college football reporter Heather Dinich shared the CFP and ESPN have agreed to a five-year, $1.7B deal that can double the bracket from 12 groups to 24 in 2027. The choice will remove Energy 4 convention championship video games, making it much more unpopular.
How does this resolution impression school soccer?
To a extra informal fan, this may occasionally not seem to be a horrible thought. Extra groups equals more opportunity, and, in idea, it might make school soccer’s postseason extra like school basketball’s March Insanity, which options 68 groups within the males’s and ladies’s brackets. Those that are extra plugged into the sport will detest this modification and name it a cash seize. That take is justified.
Former Alabama Crimson Tide head coach Nick Saban advised the “New Heights” podcast last week that there aren’t “24 groups within the nation that may win the nationwide championship,” and the one motive for growth was cash.
