And if ESPN isn't prepared to do this, then I would recommend that 4 of the P conferences form their own upper tier and literally agree to having each of their champions play it off and sell the rights to that independent of ESPN control or the control of any network. They can buy the rights, but they can't own the process.

I was just using the current CFP/NY6 payouts they have listed on their website. I'd definitely be game with increasing the payouts. Frankly, I think it's kind of crazy that in the current system you get $6M for the semifinals but you get $0 for the title. 01-wingedeagle

They want certainty. So they split the revenue instead of weighting it by success.
