It sure is a different world, from the world of NBC, ABC, and CBS isn’t it?

Yup, and these TV deals is where they get the money to pay the coaches tens of millions of dollars a year.

You know at the start of the season, when some cupcake MAC team plays a Big Ten team? The TV revenue from that one game usually pays for the MAC team's entire year of expenses.

Wow, the TV money sure is huge.

I don’t know about college football, but I’ve heard that NFL teams make more revenue from TV money, than it does from people buying tickets to the game at the stadium.

The MAC team doesn't get the TV revenue directly. The Big Ten or SEC school pays the MAC team directly and then recoups the cost when the network TV Check comes in.
