Greg Sankey would like to see the playoff expand to 16. It’s not ideal, but this is what

The Football Championship Subdivision has been dealing with for years. I’d like to see it be eight and skate but like Jagger says, you can’t always get what you want LINK

Greg Sankey is the worst thing to happen to the SEC outside of recent expansion which was his doing as well.

Actually okay with this given conference championship games are gone and we start the week after.

Sankey wants more teams in for more money. Bottom line.

Yep and that's why he's a shitty commissioner. He doesn't understand winning and having success is the greatest long term driver of money/revenue and instead keeps selling out the SEC for what are honestly shitty amounts.

If you take away the autobids then 12 is plenty.

He’s totally screwed over the SEC

Added 2 teams, and didn’t get a dime for it

Pushed everybody where they had to go to nine games seasons, which will lead to dropping quality out of conference games
And will also result in fewer SEC teams making the playoffs


So he has to push for an expanded playoff, cause he’s an idiot

Sankey is the best and if you inbreds don't see that, move up here to Ohio and witness the greatness of Tony Pettitti, firsthand. You will quickly realize Sankey is by far the best commissioner, of the best league! SEC wont have auto bids or Private Equity, because Sankey has a brain!

Yeah, they’ll probably let more Group 5 charity cases in.

I don’t need to move to Ohio to watch sankey get bitch slapped by the big 10. He’s been a really bad commissioner for the SEC.

I still think 8 teams was the sweet spot and they skipped right over it.

This would be great for the SEC. Seems to me that Sankey is ditching those shitt teams that I previously mentioned because those are the teams that were on several SEC schedules this year. Nobody wants to watch those games
