The SEC and Big Ten were close to leaving the College Football Playoff before securing a new deal that addressed their demands.
Before last month's expanded College Football Playoff agreement, the NCAA faced the potential exit of powerhouse conferences SEC and Big Ten from the postseason. The, SEC Commissioner Greg Sankey and Big Ten Commissioner Tony Petitti highlighted that a January 2022 meeting could have been a breaking point. The lack of a decision led to a stern warning from the conferences.
Under the new revenue model, the SEC and Big Ten will receive a combined 58 percent of all CFP revenue, Dellenger reported. This financial arrangement was key to retaining both conferences. Reflecting on the negotiations, Petitti underscored the readiness to seek alternatives if a satisfactory deal was unattainable.
Dellenger identified the January 2022 meeting as a critical moment that led to the current revenue-sharing arrangement between the SEC and Big Ten. The meeting ended with some participants leaving out of frustration over the stagnated discussion on the proposed expansion format.

Private College Costs Exceed $90,000, Making College Education Expensive for Wealthy FamiliesA number of private colleges have exceeded the $90,000 threshold for the first time this year as they set their annual costs for tuition, board, meals, and other expenses. This means that a wealthy family with three children could expect to spend over $1 million by the time their youngest child completes a four-year degree.
