Here's an article on ESPN's blog about how all the non automatic qualifying conferences share the money from BCS games. Is it just me or is this crazy? I'm all for money being distributed for the greater good of one conference, but if Boise gets $20M for going to a BCS game but only sees a portion of it. Anyway, not a huge issue I just thought it was interesting with all the conference expansion and revenue sharing talk going on.

If you think this is unfair, then you have to be completely against the Big Ten plan and even the Big 12's current form of sharing. Texas brings in the majority of the money for our conference, yet the lesser accomplished schools like ISU still get a big cut of it.

I am not against revenue sharing for A conference. However, sharing revenue between multiple conferences is completely different. If Boise State makes a BCS bowl game why should Louisiana-Lafayette get more money?
