I am shocked the teams and conferences which have most benefited from the current set up are most in favor of the status quo.
CFP to remain 4 teams through ’25 after expansion talks fail

Actually...I am shocked (NOT) that the conference who wants five teams in the CFP (the SEC) and the conference desperate to find CFP spots without Texas and Oklahoma (Big 12) are the ones who want a 12 team expansion.
Sankey would like two of his teams in with a "bye".
Shocked, I tell you.

We all saw this coming, but I'm taking this as a positive. I'm thinking the TV exec's are going to see that and expanded playoff is going to bring in more money just like the NCAA tournament so they'll be pushing behind the scenes to force conference's hands in the years to come. In the meantime, this gives them a solid 3 years to work out details and shut the Rose Bowl up.

What may be operative is that the CFP will now not expand until after ESPN's CFP contract is up.
The conferences will work up a playoff proposal to submit to the media for the 26-27 year...and they may attract bidding from other than ESPN.

A Business Decision...
“Today, we have no contractual commitment, no grant-of-rights beyond Year 12. The whole thing goes away beyond Year 12 if we don’t come to an agreement,” Kliavkoff told Finebaum.
“So I’ve asked to have a discussion about what the revenue splits look like beyond Year 12, if we’re going to agree to extend. I’ve never signed a contract in my life where I don’t know the financial terms, but I’ve agreed to sign the contract.”
