    There are still plenty of details to be hammered out, but at least one BCS conference commissioner believes he and his colleagues can reach a compromise on the model for a four-team playoff to determine college football's national championship -- possibly as soon as this week.

    ACC commissioner John Swofford told ESPN.com on Monday that the 11 FBS commissioners and Notre Dame athletic director Jack Swarbrick have made "considerable progress" as they head into their meeting in Chicago on Wednesday.

    Swofford said he hopes the commissioners will be able to present a four-team playoff to the BCS Presidential Oversight Committee in Washington, D.C., next week. The presidents' committee, which is chaired by Virginia Tech's Charles W. Steger and includes 12 university presidents, will ultimately decide where college football's postseason is headed.
