Lol. The voters will say they were confused and picked the wrong one no matter which way the wind blows. Maybe the jmu mascot could be john wayne...and since he ayed for USC, a big 10 team, i guess that is where they will land?

Duke won. JMU should get in

CFP Payouts:
For 2025-2026, 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.

On another Note the 68 Ventures Lending Tree Mobile bowl payout is 1.5 Million I assume split b/t the two teams. Always better than the NOLA Bowl payout which:
NOLA bowl is only 825K.

Man just shows you what making the CFP can do for a school for their NIL alone:
but Hey JMU helped us make some change. Geaux JMU

[MarlinMan3]

Are expenses part of the 4 million? Or paid separately by ncaa?

Should br at least 200k left for each cpnf mate, so 500k total since i assume an r1 school meets apr?

Is the APR money new? 99.9 pct of schools "make it"

yay to jmu! would've liked 'bama out, but n.d. out is a nice consolation. and i can't stand miami!

[ULGrad@HOU]

I'm glad JMU got in, I didn't think it would be able to happen. Things fell right, and I'm happy for the Sun Belt.
