Ohio State LOST almost 2 mil per Sports Illustrated 2 years ago going to the Rose Bowl after paying coaches bonuses, flying the band and boosters out a week early and the per diems.The Bowls are little thiefdoms that need to be blown up. U Conn is going to lose millions becuse they cant sell their allotment and the 500 hotel rooms they are on the hook for.No school"makes" money on Bowls . They are an expense.

That's why we need a playoff and why we will never have a playoff. Coaches and AD's make money for going to bowls and bowl heads make money off of the schools going to the bowls. A heavy amount of teams that go to mid- level and lower tier games lose money right off the bat with having to buy so many tickets.

schools that don't make a bowl at all and share the profits with their conference do.
