Ferentz backs expanded playoff push at Big Ten media days
Iowa coach Kirk Ferentz joined Big Ten peers in backing a 16 team College Football Playoff format with four automatic bids for the Big Ten and SEC, two for the ACC and Big 12, one for the top Group of Six team, plus a proposed play-in weekend hosted on campus sites for Nos 3 through 6. Ferentz called the plan a chance to boost fan interest and let a few teams host postseason games. He also noted lineman Cody Fox has left the Hawkeyes after playing one freshman game last season.
