NJDuck Moderator No. 1 Share Posted March 20 Huh? More handouts given to the Pac-2 Oregon State and Washington State will receive a nice payday from the College Football Playoff after all The College Football Playoff has finalized a new media rights contract, and what's left of the Pac-12 is set to benefit from the updated distribution model. Oregon State and Washington State will each receive $3.6 million annually from 2026 -- when the new agreement is set to begin -- to at least 2028, three years before the deal is set to expire, CBS Sports' Dennis Dodd confirmed. The negotiated amount pales in comparison to what other power-conference schools will make under the model, but it is a huge increase for the nominal "Pac-2's," financial prospects. Prior to the amendement, Oregon State and Washington State were set to make around $350,000 annually from CFP distribution -- the same figure granted to independent programs not named Notre Dame. "The Pac-12 is pleased the College Football Playoff will continue to grow as an incredible sporting event for our student-athletes and fans," the Pac-12 said in a statement. "The new agreement to continue on ESPN platforms provides excellent exposure opportunities for Oregon State and Washington State football programs to succeed on the biggest stage in college sports."
