    That tweet was based on Jerry Palm's calculation of the BCS. Palm has changed that prediction and now has NIU at 17. I've said it before and will stick with it. Memphis.

    NIU will definitely jump to 17. Making the jump from 17 to 16 is the hard part. I'll post details related to the computers once the Harris Poll is posted.

    Hard to know which way to go with this...NIU in the BC$ gets Tech a worse bowl bid but around $150K of extra BC$ income.

    Why do you say that? Three teams immediately in front of NIU --Texas, Kent St and UCLA-- all lost this weekend. Plus, Boise (at 10-2) struggled to beat a 7-5 Nevada team, 27-21. Also, Michigan, ranked #19, has 4 losses. So I could easily see how a 12-1 NIU team could pass the Wolverines & Boise with their big win in the MAC championship game.

    That's 5 teams NIU could easily jump this week. 21 minus 5 = 16.

    It doesn't matter what the payouts are. The bowls are only obligated to pay the payout amounts to teams from conferences the are contracted to.

    Payouts do not matter unless your conference has an official bowl tie in with that bowl.

    WAC doesn't have tie ins with any of these bowls, so the payout would be less than "advertised"

    Payouts go directly to the WAC. For at-large teams, the payouts are not the listed amounts because they have to be negotiated. However, that really doesn't matter to us. For any non-BC$ bowl, we will get $375,000 from the WAC, plus reimbursed for travel expenses for travel party of 185 by the WAC, and opportunity to earn an additional $25,000 from the WAC depending on ticket sales.

    I'm shocked at how many college football fans don't know this. I'll bet I've seen this question asked 15 times over the last 2 weeks. People JUST DON'T KNOW.

    You should see what the LaMon fans have to say about the $1.2 Million payout they are about to get.

    I spent a long time explaining this to my sister (ULM freshman), so she'll be prepared if the Chickens start waving that number around.

    FWIW, she thinks it's stupid that Tech would ever stoop to play ULM. The trolls are back out beating this horse.
