Its still out of context, college athletic departments are non profits. All sports besides 2 lose money. What would Cincinnati's P/L look like if they eliminated all sports programs except football and men's basketball? Or what would it be with out the BCS money?

n NFL-style football playoff would generate three or four times" more than "the current system does." That could mean an estimated $700 million to $800 million annually to be distributed among the I-A conferences.

The funny thing about that is most of it would go to the Big ie BCS conferences. You think a playoff is gonna be better for the Sun Belt and MAC or the Big 10 and SEC?

Most schools don't even make that much off of basketball. A few years back I know that LSU lost money with men's basketball

I don't see why more people don't get this, especially those who want home games in the early rounds

I love the BCS and so do the University Presidents. In Fact I would love to see everyone but the BCS Auto qualifying schools go and form a play off and see how that works for them.

Let ESPN foot the bill for it. I sure as hell won't watch it. Everyone talks about how great BSU is, but the reality TCU and BSU need the big boys more than they need them.
