WVU revenue for our N game

WVU's game against BYU in 2016 at FedEx Field guarantees $2.45 million with another $200,000 ticket sales incentive.



This gives us some idea of the revenue at a neutral site. I assume we get offered the same money.

I would assume just the opposite. BYU will probably get 1.65 to 2.0 million. Nothing to sneeze at, but I wouldn't expect it to be the same.

I'm guessing BYU gets a flat $1MM + ticket sales as part of its existing ESPN deal. I doubt ESPN is coming back to BYU to renegotiate each time it brokers a game.

I believe that Jay Drew wrote that BYU is getting slightly less than WVU for this game, $2.25MM.

He actually wrote it was equal, back in September 2010 in the Trib:

"a West Virginia official told this newspaper that each school is getting $2.25 million to play in that game in 2016 at FedExField in the Washington, D.C., area. Yes, that's almost twice the amount the Cougars get through their current TV deal with the Mountain West Conference's television affiliates."
