College Football Playoff expected to be key topic at Big 12 Spring Meetings - East Idaho News

Frisco, Texas will host the Big 12 Spring Meetings at the Omni PGA Frisco, bringing presidents, athletic directors, SWAs, and coaches from all 16 member schools. The event underscores governance and football strategy, with the 24-team College Football Playoff format a central topic. Among coaching narratives, Utah head coach Morgan Scalley appears for the first time, while BYU’s Kalani Sitake has the longest tenure following the departures of Mike Gundy and Kyle Whittingham. Commissioner Brett Yormark advocates the 24-team playoff, aiming for equal automatic qualifiers, a stance contrasted with the Big Ten’s discussions about expansion and structure. The meetings will address postseason formats, revenue, and criteria for at-large bids.
