The BCS doesn't work that way. The second team gets about what the Cap One pays. The 3rd team would probably get about the same. They front load the first BCS team so they can keep the payouts to the various BCS conferences reasonably close.


Sure about that? Not saying you're wrong, but they simply list the payout for each bowl and I've never seen anything that says that they adjust it. Not sure WHY they would adjust it; if a team makes it in, the payout shouldn't be predicated on anything outside of that.

As for the officiating crew, I was kind of opening that door without saying it.

For the 2nd team, yes. 3rd team is just a guess.
