Former Alabama head coach Nick Saban spoke out against a proposed expansion of the College Football Playoff to 24 teams on Friday, November 6, 2026, stating, "There’s not 24 teams" deserving of a spot in the postseason.
Saban, who led Alabama to multiple national championships, argued that the current talent pool does not support such a large playoff field. His comments add to the ongoing debate over the future format of college football's championship system.
