On today's college football inquire, college football coaches want a 2014 playoff.

Do they care how many games are in the playoff?

Probably not.

They have other reasons and we will explain.

Plus, Ross's congressional minute and if there were a 2014 playoff, how would that affect various programs?

How would the last two years have been different if it had been 24 instead of 12?

We'll talk about it all. On today's College Football Inquirer.

This is College Football Inquirer with Ross Delinger and Stephen Godfrey. I am Andy Staples.

And Ross Delinger, you had another story this week. Another domino has fallen in the

road to a larger playoff. And the size of said larger playoff seems to be coming into focus

because the American Football Coaches Association members voted for a 2014 playoff. Now, we've talked about everybody getting behind the idea of 24,

except Greg Sanky and the SEC. But we need to explain why. Like, why do these guys want this now?

Because typically coaches' interests don't always align with the ADs or with the presidents,

but it seems like everybody's sort of falling into line here. Yeah. Andy, I think you wrote about it

today at On 3 is the reason behind this move is more so sure it's access, more access, and coaches want more

access, of course, because they want a chance to get in the playoff with three or four losses

if they can. But really, it is the calendar, and it's moving up every, moving up the playoff,

basically by a week, if not two weeks if they could um in in

having a little more sort of set calendar that finishes the season earlier so that's sort of the

goal and i think there's a few ways they want to do that um one and get rid of to me to me actually

the bigger news from the coaches

was this group of coaches all saying get rid of the conference championship games, right?
