Night games in Death Valley are the coolest thing in sports to most of us. It's okay for people to be upset.

Also, what happened decades ago means nothing for 2 Saturdays from now.

No shot. Riley will get another head coaching gig. Plenty of schools would kill for Riley as their head coach.
I don't think the schools contribute anything during the regular season. What the SEC earns as a league comes from TV deals, bowl and playoff payouts, SEC title game, and basketball tournament. The networks pay the conference and the conference splits it.

The main way a team's earnings feed the pot is bowls. Each team keeps a set amount for expenses and the rest goes to the conference to split. Don't think they report revenue to the SEC, just to the NCAA. Could be wrong but that's my understanding.
Eh, roster value doesn't really matter here. What matters is how you stack up against the teams you play. Saban was #1 in the talent composite 7 of his last 9 years (not the end-all, be-all metric, but still), sometimes by 40–55 points over #2. This year the top 4 are all within 45 points of each other, so $50 mil just keeps you in the hunt. Give it time and I think we'll be fine.
