I must say... I was shocked to see that the Music/Belk/Pinestripe/Sun all had higher payouts than the Gator... How the Gator has fallen...

I paid money to see three Gator Bowls. I saw one when State beat ND, the other two I could not see **** because of fog.

Good find, GTFletch!

I analyzed the payouts for 2019 vs. the [assumed] payouts for 2020 to see if the ACC lost or gained money. Good news - it gains about $4 million/year! [LINK]

Quote:Let's assume for a moment that all bowls continue to pay the same amount in 2020 that they are scheduled to pay in 2019. With that assumption (and we know it's likely to be wrong, but it's the best we can do), how does the bowl lineup realignment affect the ACC?

If you've been keeping up with the changes in the bowl lineups, you may have noticed by now that the ACC lost the conditional tie to the Citrus Bowl ($8.55 million) and replaced it with the Outback Bowl ($6.35 million). That's a small step down in pay, even if Tampa is a better location for the ACC.

If you're really observant you may have also noticed that the ACC is going from sharing the Music City Bowl ($5.65 million) with the Big Ten to playing in the Gator Bowl every year ($3.17 million).

Does this mean that the ACC will now be getting smaller bowl payouts?

Actually, just the opposite - but some math is required to prove it.

First, look at the Citrus vs. Outback situation. That $2.2 million/year may sound like a lot - until you realize that it only happened once (so far) in the first 6-year cycle, and will probably happen at most two times in the next cycle. Twice in 6 years is 1/3rd, and 1/3rd of $2.2 million is a difference of only $730,000 annualized - peanuts in big-time athletics.

What about the Music City vs. Gator Bowls? Previously those were split 50/50, so the difference in payouts is $5.65M - $3.17M = $2.48, divided by 2 = $1.24M annualized. More than the Citrus impact, but still not earth-shattering.

Here's where the ACC makes it up and more: it's essentially trading the Independence Bowl ($1.25M) for the Holiday Bowl ($6.33M) - an increase of $5.08M!

Another trade in the works is when the ACC replaces the Quick Lane Bowl with the new Boston Fenway Park Bowl. We don't know how much the new bowl will pay, but we can be fairly confident it will be more than the paltry $750,000 the Quick Lane was paying.

When all is said and done, the ACC should net out an increase of at least $4 million per year - more if you assume that the league will continue to place a team into the CFP playoffs (thereby dropping the lowest-paying bowl in most cases).

This is assuming payouts stay even for the next cycle. Imagine there will be some changes. You have to think Gasparilla with ACC vs SEC match up will increase.


1. Orange (Unchanged)
1.A Outback (Decrease from outback) - @Kapolony, 1a is there will get 2nd pick over all when available.

Assuming Tier 1
Campus World - Assume at least same payout.
Belk Bowl - This may go up, if they raise payout to get the same slot for B10/SEC of Vegas Off Years)
Holiday Bowl - Moving to smaller stadium, how does this impact payout?

Assuming Tier 2
Gator Bowl - Assume staying same but talks have been they need to raise payout.
PinStripe - Assume Staying same
Sun - Assume Staying same

Assuming Tier 3
Military - Same
Gasparilla - Assume increasing
Boston - At least Detroit Level

11th Slot gets funky with First Responder (
- Option 1 B12 vs ACC (Rarely both conferences will play each other)
- Option 2 ACC replaces B10 and does First Responder 3 yrs and Armed Forces 3 yrs. (Most Logical)
- Option 3 ACC Tied-in Years B12 is not and primary back up following years

Conditional 12th bowl Tie-in, if ACC team available, Birmingham if either AAC or SEC does not fill slot.

I will say, going to the last year of 2013 contract, ACC bowls have vastly improved. Sadly, Bowl games are not what they use to be with players opting out.
