Nice summary of the financial implications of the ACC's poor football performance this year. The lack of Clemson being a powerhouse this year cost UVA $1.7M.
"In a year when the other P5 conferences each got $40M from their Contract Bowl while the ACC only got $27.5M (thanks again, Swofford & co.!) - AND - the ACC was the only P5 with neither a playoff team nor an at-large NY6 bid... that put the ACC at an automatic $25.5 million disadvantage in terms of revenue. To put that into perspective, $25.5M/15 = $1.7M per school."
