Yes, every conference except for the SEC will have a year they make only about 55-60 million. Next year is the ACC. The following year the P5 all make 80+ million. Then they cycle starts over again. Remember, the SEC and B10 are the only two P5 schools that have tie-in to a second NYE/NYD bowl. All P5's know what the payouts will be each year for the 12 year cycle. Even if the ACC gets two teams in next year the payouts don't increase greatly. Much like the B12 this year.
This year every conference but the ACC is guaranteed at least 90 million. The following year- the 4 P5 conference guaranteed at least 90 million, while the ACC is guaranteed only 77.5 million.
S20, I am not arguing that the ACC isn't the lowest of the P5 schools when the money is distributed on average. I do think your math may be a little off. I think it is more around low 80 million the ACC because I think each P5 gets 55 Million. I be the last to say the ACC should claim poverty, but thaks for the concern.
Hey I get why Big East fans probably hate the ACC. No doubt the ACC and Swofford killed the BE in it's quest to survive. Basically, the ACC tripped the Big East while running from the zombies to save itself.
I think this past year-
SEC 87.5 million (50 million for the CFP share, 27.5 for Orange Share, 6 million for Alabama in CFP semifinal, 4 million for Ole Miss).
ACC 83.5 million (50 million for CFP share, 27.5 for Orange Share, 6 million for FSU in CFP semifinal).
P12 60 million (50 million for CFP share, 6 million for Oregon in CFP semifinal, 4 million for Arizona)
B10 60 million (50 million for CFP share, 6 million for Ohio St in CFP semifinal, 4 million for Mich St)
B12 58 million 50 million for CFP share, 4 million each for Baylor, TCU).
This upcoming year guarantees-
SEC, P12, B10, B12 90 million (50 million for CFP share, 40 million for Rose/Sugar share)
ACC 50 million(50 million for CFP share)
Got 6 million each for the 4 CFP SF teams, and the 3 access bowl slots left get 4 million each.
