Yes, for now. They are considering a change for the future where the conference champ would get more.

The ACC deal is maybe all the more reason to invite WSU. What if they wind up with Syracuse two years in a row? WSU is a good story too with the Leach/Texas Tech angle.
Who do you see as 'on the bubble' - the P5 teams who cold be screwed? I assume Pitt and SU in the ACC. Who else?Hate to say it but Phil Steele could be right...we need Rutgers and SMU both lose to ensure a bowl...otherwise it looks like one P5 team is screwed. The thing screwing us up is the SunBelt has a secondary agreement with the Beef O'Brady Bowl, the MAC has secondary agreements w/ 4 bowls for this year: Poinsettia, New Mexico, Beef O'Brady's, and BBVA Compass.

The ACC splits bowl revenues evenly among league schools (less expenses). So while there is an incentive to secure bowl slots for as many conference schools as possible (which perhaps includes using their leverage in Dallas), the bowl payout has little direct financial impact on the ACC team playing in it.

tickets to the game dont mean anything. every bowl makes the school buy tickets and probably we would be in the hook for 15-20K no matter what. the question is who would spend more money 3-5k of SU fans who fly in or 20K of N texas fans who drive in. locals are not buying 2-3 nights of hotel and food
so SU needs to step up and make a better offer on ticket sales. will they ante up money for the bigger picture?North TX would be our opponent...we are potentially competing against Wash St. for an at-large spot in the Dallas Bowl

I'm leaning to Dallas now...but don't underestimate the Mike Leach Factor...a ton of TX Tech fans in Dallas...but will they go out of their way to buy a ticket. If North Texas is the other team they will bring 20k I figure...Cuse might bring 3-5k...will DFW area bring another 15k to make it look decent on TV? Now you know why I was pissed about all these MAC teams getting to 6-6...also WSU and Miss ST hurt us too.
You are saying Beef O'Brady and the MAC has the secondary agreement...the bowl is not going to break a contract just to get a name team.You're a worry wart.

Steele's projection not only considers the multiple tie ins for non-P5 conferences but ALSO projects 7-5 Toledo and Ohio teams getting open, at-large bids from bowls where contracted P5 conferences can;t fill with a bowl eligible team. Struggle with that logic.
Sorry, I don't have any further info. I was going on the Teele article as well, which CuseLagacy brought to my attention in another thread.Any idea what the additional revenue to the ACC would be this year with FSU in the National Championship game? Went back and googled that David Teele article that spoke of this from May of 2013 and it didn't have the actual payout per team per year. With one team in the NC and another (Clemson) perhaps in a BCS, not to mention, possibly 11 of 14 teams in bowls, this has got to be the biggest payout in the history of the ACC, no??
I left out ND too, not sure their bowl payouts get counted...
North TX would be our opponent...we are potentially competing against Wash St. for an at-large spot in the Dallas Bowl
Actually having UNT (North TX) is helpful in this case as they will be a local team to help fill seats and Cuse or Wash St. will bring the P5 and TV eyeballs.
By my count even if we do not get an ACC tied bowl and Clemson does NOT get the Sugar Bowl bid there are six open slots (seven if Rutgers loses) and other than Cuse 3 teams from BCS conferences eligible. Notre Dame makes four. That means all four of those schools (Washington State the weakest) PLUS two from other conferences (Toledo, Ohio and Arkansas State the only teams with better than 6-6 records) would need to receive bids to leave us out.
Unfortunately that is exactly what Phil Steele projects this morning.

Mark don't you think the ACC having a bowl tie in with the Heart of Dallas bowl going forward would help us get the spot instead of Washington St? You would think they would take care of the conference they have reached a future agreement with? Not to mention the game will be televised on ESPN
Do you have a link for this future agreement? I'm not saying I disagree but I can't find anything saying this.I still think Syracuse would get an invite to the Heart of Dallas bowl ahead of Washington St. The ACC is about to enter a bowl tie-in agreement with that bowl next season vs an SEC school. Why would the HoD people help the PAC12 out ahead of the ACC? Makes no sense
That would make sense. Still for now if the ACC gets Clemson in that's roughly an extra 500k.

I have the bowl tie ins and HOD isn't one.
1-cfb playoff/orange bowl/access bowl
2-capital one bowl vs sec( when big 10 is in orange bowl)
3-russell athletic bowl vs big 12 #3
group of 4 bowls :
gator bowl /Music city bowl 3 times each vs sec
sun bowl vs pac 12 #5
belk bowl vs sec #3-8
pinstripe bowl vs big 10 #5-7
military bowl vs aac
independence vs sec #10/cusa
Detroit bowl vs big 10
beef bowl (in 2014 and 2016)vs aac and back up deal if aac/cusa can't fill
Birmingham(ie pitt bowl) vs sec/aac as backup deal if either can't field a team
Clemson is in line for the orange bowl bid not sugar bowl
