Huffington Post reports that LSU, Okie Lite, Oregon, Clemson, Wisconsin, and WVU will each get $22,300,000 for our bowl games. Gumps, Stanford, Michigan, and VT will each get $6,100,000.
Is this true? Why such a big difference?

The second choice from the same conference gets less money.

looks like Michigan owes Sparty almost 3 million bucks... almost as bad as Okie Light's snub.

Not saying the figures are wrong but I am fairly certain they do not factor in money to the conference. Figures looks way inflated and are probably not in context.
Remember this is the Huffington Post. Extreme left wing publication and making a political statement as well as a sports one even in this article.
Same credibility as - say the ESPN Recruiting rankings.

The SEC is a communist like system. Ole Miss gets almost as much as LSU (I think like 95% or more) and they're not even going to a bowl. I don't understand why the BCS system would pay so much less to the 2nd team in the conference. That sucks for the whole conference in a system like ours.
