- Big Ten seeking clarity on playoff expansion before addressing its nonconference scheduling policy
The Big Ten Conference delays changes to its nonconference scheduling policy until a final decision on expanding the college football playoff is made. The conference supports a 24-team playoff format and currently remains the only major conference without a requirement for teams to play a Power Four opponent annually. Other conferences like the SEC and ACC have adopted nine-game league schedules and enforce nonconference games against Power Four teams.
