James Franklin Sparks Debate with Bold Take on CFP’s ‘Balanced’ Format—What’s Really Behind His Controversial Claim?
Franklin’s program is poised for another run at the playoff. Still, the Nittany Lions’ head coach gave an eye-opening statement on potentially tweaking the current format to more automatic bids for the major conferences.
“The majority of people that have strong opinions have an agenda and are biased based on what’s good for them. Right? I think the reason the Big Ten and the SEC feel like there’s an argument for more (automatic bids) is because of a lot of the things that I’ve also brought up in the past, the discrepancies or things that are not even or balanced in the sport. Our conferences are built differently, everybody shouldn’t get the same vote. (The Big Ten has) more teams in our conference now and have a greater level of competition week-in and week-out, why should it be balanced?
