Snowy, Cold Clash Prompts One-Day, Heat-Free Format

Winter weather threatens the NASCAR Cup Series Clash at Bowman Gray Stadium, pushing officials to run a one-day, heat-free program on Sunday after Saturday activity was postponed. The plan splits drivers into three practice groups with final-session times determining the main-event lineup, cancels Saturday’s heat races, and adds a 75-lap last-chance qualifier on Sunday for two spots in the 200-lap feature. The 23rd spot goes to the top points driver not yet qualified, with Kyle Larson guaranteed a spot; the race will have a midway break at lap 100, only green-flag laps count, and must finish under caution, while Chase Elliott won last year’s event.

"CFP Format Faces Uncertainty Amidst Pac-12's Demise: Decision Looms This Fall"

The College Football Playoff (CFP) Management Committee, consisting of conference commissioners and Notre Dame's AD, is expected to discuss potential adjustments to the approved 12-team playoff format, known as the 6+6 model, following the recent wave of realignment. The format change, which requires unanimous approval, could involve a 5+7 model that eliminates an automatic qualifying spot and adds an at-large berth. The Pac-12's uncertain future and the possibility of a two-school conference further complicate the decision-making process. The committee aims to reach a decision on the format this fall, with potential changes taking effect in the 2024 season.

College Football Playoff Format to Change Again; Pac-12's Future Uncertain as 5 Universities Depart

The CFB Playoff is expected to change its format again before the next season, with a shift in the selection process. The collapse of the Pac-12 is a major reason for the change, and the SEC and Big Ten are likely to favor more than a minor adjustment. The current plan for the 2024 season includes automatic bids for the top six conference champions, but there is debate over whether this is the right approach. Some argue for a 12-team format with no automatic qualifiers, while others believe including underdog teams would be good for business and television ratings.
