Brent Venables is the head coach at Oklahoma. His opinion matters because his position helps shape the policies and procedures for the sport. Venable is a football coach, not a policy-maker.
The College Football Playoff board voted unanimously to expand the CFP field from four teams to 12. Venables is hyper-focused on 2022. By then, the Sooners' conference affiliation will be with the Southeastern Conference. Venable considers himself a purist about college football. He tries to look at the good and bad sides of the sport. The last two years, Oklahoma has won the national championship. It's a good thing for the college sports. If it goes to the playoffs, Venability would like it to be like the NCAA basketball tournament. he doesn't want it commercialized.
