WVU will receive 1.437 mil for playing in the Liberty Bowl.

From the "What If?" file - If WVU had won TCU and K St, as most of us feel they should have, what would the WV bowl payout have been? I am guessing those 2 losses cost WV about $2 to 3M.



Oh well, it's only money.

I found it hard to believe that a bowl game would pay out more than one of the College playoff game. I had to check up on that $27.5 million payout for the Orange Bowl and it is correct. I was really surprosed to find this out. So next year when the Sugar and Rose Bowl are not a part of the College Playoff.
This is what I found in USA Today. "The Rose and Sugar Bowls – tied to the Big Ten and Pac-12 and Big 12 and SEC, respectively – will serve as semifinals for the playoff this season. But in 2015, when the Rose and Sugar aren't semifinals, those four leagues would each receive approximately $40 million (above the $50 million base payout from the College Football Playoff) from their contracts with those bowls." Power Five's College Football Playoff revenues will double what BCS paid
