Haywarduck No. 1 Share Posted December 13 From what I read a school that reaches the championship game would accrue upwards of $20 million. The rules on where this money goes are fuzzy at best. Every conference has differing rules, but it has to be a nice little reward to the winning programs. In the NFL the player get over $150,000 for winning the Super Bowl. Do the players have NIL agreements where they get some of the $20 million? Each school also gets $300,000 for expenses for the games. Must be some perks for the players, right? I suppose we are headed into uncharted waters, but does anyone have a clear picture on the finances of a championship run? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Charles Fischer Administrator No. 3 Share Posted December 13 We covered this a couple of days ago. (And Google is your friend) How much does a team get for making the College Football Playoff in 2024-2025? With the new 12-team playoff comes a new revenue distribution model. For 2024-2025, here’s how much each team will make in the College Football Playoff: $4 million for each of the 12 teams that makes the College Football Playoff $4 million for each of the 8 teams that makes the College Football Playoff Quarterfinals $6 million for each of the 4 teams that makes the College Football Playoff Semifinals $6 million for each of the 2 teams that makes the College Football Playoff National Championship Game Additionally, each team who participates in the College Football Playoff receives $3 million to cover expenses for each round. Additionally, each conference receives $300,000 for each of its schools whose football team meets the NCAA’s APR for participation in a postseason football game. Each independent institution also receives $300,000 if its football team meets the same standard. 1 Mr. FishDuck Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Haywarduck Author No. 4 Share Posted December 13 So I went with AI and it said the conference gets the money and it is distributed equally to all schools. Googles info is limited and doesn't portray the whole story. I am not sure what the whole story is but this is what AI ended with. 'The primary benefit for the winning team is indirect: increased national prestige, recruiting advantages, higher ticket sales, and increased donations from alumni and boosters.' This is basically the same thing the NFL does with the team money, but the players make more from each game they play. The teams share the playoff, Super Bowl money league wide. I imagine the players might also have a stronger NIL draw so more money too? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
