Butler and Xavier

UNC falling to the Big East two years in a row would be ideal. Let's end the ACC's season tonight, finish them Butler!

Btw, there is a outside shot at a X/Butler championship game, it would be the first conference matchup in the final since 88', just saying!

X just made SJU some money winning that game. Gotta love rev share.

Any idea on how much X made with the win and how that breaks down for each conf school?

In 2015 it was 1.67 mill for just appearing each round. That has gone up slightly. Big East like most teams split it evenly amongst all members. So X made us about 200k by winning last night and 800k total this tournament.

A rough approximation for the tournament thus far rounding up to 2 mill per appearance:

7 bids x 2 mill
3 second round appearances x 2 mill
2 third round appearances x 2 mill
1 fourth round appearance (Butler remaining) x 2 mill

26 mill / 10 teams = 2.6 mill for SJU

Nice breakdown. Thanks.
