re: Tech/ULM football series

Still waiting for some solid info on net revenue/loss from the I-Bowl. Did the bowl give Tech a higher payout than they did to Northern Illinois? According to that article, both got $750K before expenses. Did Tech bus over the day of the game to minimize costs or stay in Shreveport? The true cost (or profit) would be useful to know. A lot of minor bowls are losses for the teams but done for exposure and to reward the players.
