According to the CFP release, there won't be any new spots created for the now Group of 6. There will be one spot for the highest-ranked team from the American, Conference USA, MAC, Mountain West, Pac-12 or Sun Belt. That continues a change from before the 2026 season that guaranteed bids to the four power conference champions and the highest ranked Group of Six team, instead of the five highest ranked conference champions, regardless of conference. While coach Charles Kelly sees advantage in scheduling, he doesn't seem to be in favor of an expanded playoffs, at least one that doesn't include all conference champions. "I think there may be some advantages for us in scheduling, that's the advantage that I see," Kelly said. "It's unfortunate that it's going to be the only sport in NCAA that doesn't take a conference champion. All other sports, conference champions have an opportunity to compete in the championship tournament, why we came up with that I don't know."
