The CFP has reached a handshake deal with ESPN to broadcast a 24-team CFP beginning in 2027, a source told ESPN. There is still a lot of work to be done to formalize the deal on paper - and still subject to board approval from all involved parties - but another important step closer to it becoming reality.
