That was interesting, but from my perspective, obvious. It will also do little to thwart the myriad of articles that come out on the same subject this year. Stories about teams losing money on big bowl games sell better than stories about conferences making butt-loads of money on them.
This also makes the schools’ bowl game guilt pitches less effective. Realistically, you don’t “cost” your school very much when you buy your ticket on Craigslist instead of through official channels (or decide not to go at all). Since the ACC covers it before distributing the funds…you are only “costing” the school 1/14 of face value of the ticket.
