ESPN and the College Football Playoff agreed to terms on a contract extension that will make the network the home of the 12-team playoff tournament through the 2031-32 season, sources told the Athletic's Andrew Marchand, Nicole Auerbach, Stewart Mandel, and Chris Vannini.
The six-year extension will cost the network around $1.3 billion annually. ESPN is currently paying out an average of $608 million per year for the CFP package that includes the semifinals and title game.
The agreement with ESPN will not be ratified until commissioners and presidents vote on the structure and financials of the expanded CFP.
