Jim Delany is stepping down as the commissioner of the Big Ten on Jan. 1, but he’s not going quietly into that good night.

This week, he took another shot at the College Football Playoff and the SEC while speaking about Playoff expansion.

Per ESPN, Delany said that only the ACC or SEC champion getting left out of the Playoff would likely spur a change in the Playoff format:

“The thing that would probably trip it is if the committee left out a champion from the ACC or SEC,” Delany said. “That would be an immediate catapult forward, as it was when Auburn was left out.”

The Big Ten loves to claim SEC bias these days, and this certainly isn’t Delany’s first shot at the Playoff committee.

Delany went on to complain about the damage it does to a conference to be left out of the Playoff:

“You don’t know what it means to your brand and to your recruiting prospects and so on, what it means to be left out,” Delany said. “The irony to me is you’ve doubled the access points from two to four, but you’ve at least doubled the damage and the pain associated with being left out.”

While a move to 8 teams is probably going to happen at some point in the future, it likely won’t be because of an SEC or ACC champ being left out.
