HOUSTON — Coach Willie Fritz, whose Tulane squad stunned Southern Cal in the Cotton Bowl on Jan. 2, had but one desire concerning the expanded 12-team College Football Playoff.
To Traylor’s point, since the four-team setup cranked up in 2014, only 14 programs have made the CFP, and seven of those are one-hit wonders. The other seven, led by Alabama with seven appearances, have made at least two playoffs. A couple of stark examples this past season were Tulane’s 46-45 toppling of USC in the Cotton Bowl and TCU’s 51-45 surprise of Michigan in the CFP semifinals. The Horned Frogs became the first program from Texas to make the CFP and the first Big 12 team to win a CFP game after Oklahoma was 0-for-4. Georgia ultimately smoked TCU 65-7 in the national title game for the Bulldogs’ second consecutive championship.
“And it will help in recruiting for different schools and different leagues when they’re in the playoff more. You don’t have to go to certain schools to be there. This will just be good for college football overall.”
