So the Big East will be included in the "group of five." Those conferences, the Big East, MAC, Sun Belt, MWC and C-USA, must determine how to distribute their $86.25 million amongst themselves.
In the past, those leagues, formally known as the non-automatic qualifying conferences, gave each league the same base amount and then rewarded the conferences based on their cumulative BCS ranking as a conference. Exactly how that will be done in the new system is still being negotiated between the Big East, MAC, Sun Belt, MWC and C-USA, sources said.
While the Big East's average annual revenue from the new playoff will be reduced by about $5 million annually, the remaining smaller conferences -- C-USA, Sun Belt, MWC and MAC -- will see an increase of at least five times what they received in the BCS system.

As i've been preaching, the mac, mwc, cusa, sunbelt have taken the big east's "undeserved" revenue back. this was done because it was in the interests of the other 9 conferences to rape the big east. majority rules.
ironically, it was the louisville president that agreed to this format back before aresco was on board. aresco was stuck with that decision.
