But don’t cry for the Fightin’ Irish. As an independent team not affiliated with any conference, they will pocket the entirety of their $6.2 million payout just for reaching the title game. ‘Bama will earn $23.6 million for their win, but that money must be divided up between the 12 members of the SEC, plus the conference office itself, leaving them with around $4 million after bonuses are added in. Too bad Notre Dame can’t buy their fans back, though.
