CFA playoff plan unlikely vote at CFA meeting
Dallas AP The College Football Association does not expect a vote on a national playoff plan this weekend. CFA officials say Sunday could bring a vote, but consensus seems unlikely. The 16 team playoff would start with campus first rounds and run to a January final, with costs estimated between 42 and 87 million dollars. The CFA includes five conferences and 19 independents and would bear all expenses.
