The Ohio State football program is wrong to support absurd Big Ten CFP expansion idea

The Ohio State football program has benefitted each time the format of the College Football Playoff has changed. When the first four-team CFP started, they won the national championship. In 2024, they won the title when the first 12-team Playoff started.

Now, the Big Ten is pushing for more expansion. They recently released a proposal for a 24-team CFP that wouldn't involve any conference championship games. In that proposal, it would be a 23+1 model, meaning that just one G6 team would get a bid. This model would see more on-campus games.

This ridiculous model would pretty much take away any value of the regular season in a sport that had the most important regular season of any sport.
