Summary
Notre Dame’s athletic director Pete Bevacqua is stepping into a historic dual role—joining both the NCAA men’s basketball selection committee and the College Football Playoff committee for the first time ever. With the men’s tournament expanding to 76 teams starting in 2026, Bevacqua’s influence will be crucial. He also warned Congress that college football may trend toward a “super-league,” but he’s wary, calling it a “mini NFL” that could undermine the soul of college sports.
