College football is nearly here, though things continue to look much different than they have in the past. 

While a program like Oregon has continued to dominate from top to bottom, that doesn't mean it has been all sunshine and rainbows. Oregon ultimately has dealt with a lot of stuff behind the scenes, and in this NIL era, it isn't exactly easy to make everybody happy day in and day out.

We'll continue to see further problems in this new college football landscape, including the idea of raising the number of teams in the College Football Playoff. Many believe it will keep expanding over the next few decades, and much of that is for revenue. 

At the end of the day, college football and the NCAA in general want to make even more money than they already do, and adding more teams to the playoffs would help. Recently, when asked whether he agrees with that decision, Oregon head coach Dan Lanning didn't really seem to care. 

Lanning said that he's fine with a 12-team playoff, 16-team playoff, four-team playoff, or whatever the NCAA ultimately decides to do.

“I’m great with four. I’m great with 12. Ideally, if we’re talking about it’s a TV problem, you have to generate more revenue. If you have to generate more revenue, what does that mean? It means add more teams,” Lanning said, per Cory Pappas. “It doesn’t necessarily make sense for Oregon to add more playoff teams…but I do think it makes sense for college football.”

It's easy for Lanning to say things like this, especially when we factor in that Oregon has arguably been the most dominant program in America since he took over four years ago. 

In his four seasons with the Ducks, he's won nearly 50 games and hasn't even lost 10.

If things continue to go as planned for the Ducks, they'll be one of the best teams in America day in and day out, and it really shouldn't have much of an impact on whether they make the College Football Playoff because they'll be a shoo-in to accomplish that with how well they've played.
