CHICAGO -- The Big Ten Conference would do away with its championship game if college football adopts a 24-team playoff. He conceded a 24-team College Football Playoff would mean no Big Ten championship game, which has been held annually in Indianapolis since 2011. "Yeah, I think it's pretty much we won't be playing a championship game if we go to 24," he said. The bid to expand the playoff to 24 teams also has the support of the Atlantic Coast Conference, Big 12 and Notre Dame. The SEC was the first major conference to adopt a league championship game and held its first one in 1992.
