[QUOTE="Limey Frog, post: 3362411, member: 16969"] Good write-up here, if you're a subscriber to [I]The Athletic[/I]: [URL unfurl="true"]https://theathletic.com/5309309/2024/03/01/cfp-expansion-14-team-model-autobids/[/URL] Honestly I don't think this is much of a decision for the Big 12. Two bids to the post-season was probably the best case scenario for us already, and this would guarantee that number while leaving open the (unlikely) possibility of a third spot via one of the three at-large bids. If the ACC gets dismembered and we add teams, maybe we go up to three AQ spots and the aristocracy moves up to four each. Or maybe the Big Ten and SEC breakaway entirely, but if they want to do that we're screwed no matter what we do. I think we should probably do whatever we can to put daylight between us and the conferences below us, while remaining close enough competitively to the big two (if possible) that our best programs might be able to win some games in the CFP.
