Could College Football Playoff expansion to 12 teams eliminate the 'Group of 5' label?
GRAPEVINE, Texas  Sun Belt commissioner Keith Gill does not like the term Group of 5. Its hard to find a time when hes actually said it. Its not really a term I use, Gill said. And I dont use Power 5 either. Thats not a term I use. Ive always thought those are kind of media terms and terms that the general public use. I use FBS and think were all in FBS.    Hes not alone. Most Group of 5 commissioners havent used the term since it was coined around the 2014 formation of the College Football Playoff, which guaranteed one Group of 5 conference team a spot in a New Years Six bowl game. MAC commissioner Jon Steinbrecher never uses the term either. When asked a question about the Group of 5, he almost always responds by using non-Autonomy 5, a reference to NCAA governing structure.
