How long will we have access?

I fully believe we’ll see a changing of the rules to raise the barrier of entry or shut the G5 out of the CFP entirely after the complete fan and media pundit melt down over 2 G5s getting in. So, how long do you all think we have until that happens? The current deal runs through 2031-32 but I don’t think we have 6 more seasons before they pull the rug out from under us.

They will change it next year.

There is already an MOU with Notre Dame that if they are in the top 12 they automatically get in.

I expect changes to eliminate, or severely curtail G5 participation as well.

If Tulane and JMU can win their first round games it may not be immediate. If they both lose (or one win and one lose) then we won't see another g6 in the field again. I'm almost to a point (mentally) to where the g6 just does their own thing with playoffs.
