I saw this this morning too. The numbers do speak loudly... but I agree, I don't know that it needed to be posted on here. It can rightly be viewed in some quarters here as an effort at not sharing simple innocuous info, as much as its just trolling. You choice of words for the thread seems to reveal the intent, imo

Nicky...this forum has been alive with the differences between the P5 and G5...and the widening gap...the chart illustrates that and is part of that on going conversation.
You, my friend, always make it personal. The conversation about CR is of great interest to hard core football fans...whether you afe a Uconn fan, FSU, or Texas guy.

A Rutgers fan and a Boston college fan telling an FSU fan he shouldn't post a thread on a UConn board.
I hate conference realignment.

Talking about payouts? I'm questioning whether this is the place for any outsider to gloat!! I rarely comment but seeing that thread here at this time seemed inflammatory to me considering the circumstances.

You give me to much credit....I don't TELL anyone anything!! I simply questioned the intent or necessity of posting that info. This threads already too long guys.
While the figures above are accurate for this year, its important to realize what isn't included this year.....
http://businessofcollegesports.com/...yoff-payoutsrevenue-distribution-for-2014-15/
The figures above do not include revenue from the so-called “contract bowls.” The Big Ten and Pac-12 have a contract with the Rose Bowl for years in which the Rose Bowl is not hosting a semifinal which will provide $80 million for those two conferences to split annually. The SEC and Big XII have a similar contract with the Sugar Bowl for the same amount. However, since both the Rose Bowl and Sugar Bowl are semifinal sites this year, those conferences will not play in those games and receive that revenue this year.
The ACC has a contract with the Orange Bowl for $27.5 million annually, which it will receive this year in addition to revenue earned from the CFP as detailed above. Its opponent each year will be Notre Dame or a team from the SEC or Big Ten, and that team will receive a similar payout.

Actually, in any year that Notre Dame plays in the Orange Bowl, they receive a lesser payout and the ACC receives more
"ESPN will pay an average of $55 million annually for the bowl, sources said. If the ACC plays an SEC or Big Ten opponent, both conferences would each receive $27.5 million.
However, if Notre Dame is the ACC's Orange Bowl opponent, the Irish would only receive $13.75 million and the ACC $41.25 million."

Clearly the dumbest thread on the UCONN CR board, but these guys have no where else to go to peddle this stuff. I defintely am speaking for only myself, whatdoes any of this have to do with the Huskies.. really, if you want an esoteric discussion on relative conference worth, take it somewhere else. WE are all to familiar with the tire fire that is the AAC to have to be reminded of it.

That's why they're here; they love watching the tire fire.
