Calling it now, the Big Ten pushing for a 24-team playoff is the best thing that could happen for our program. Sankey wants 16 because he knows the SEC can't handle our conference's depth from top to bottom. A bigger field means our brand of football, our toughness, and our ability to win any style of game gets rewarded every single year. While other leagues are busy collecting portal mercenaries and trying to win the offseason. That's how you survive a 24-team gauntlet. The narrative that we need flashy offenses to compete is dead wrong, and a bigger playoff proves it. Our path to the national championship just got a whole lot clearer.
