The expansion gamble in football seems to have paid off:
the ACC contract is going to basically double, going up to $37.6 million.
The contract with ESPN win in total pay $263.3 million. Each school will
get around $3.3 million, up from $2.2 million previously. When the title
game happens, that' worth about 5 million more.
<!font size="6target=_top>ESPN's bid went up because TBS was ready to take the
conference away. ESPN originally offered $28 to $ 30 million a
year.
