I've seen this come up several times and I thought I'd share what I stumbled upon today. Does the BCS mean money for I-AA? Yes, yes it does. Here's the numbers for the BCS leagues, the non-BCS I-A conferences and then finally, the I-AA conferences (yes, only eight of them, which has been discussed before)...
---------
Access means serious money for conferences. Last season, the six BCS leagues collected $89.2 million among them, compared with $5.16 million for the remaining five Division I-A leagues and $1.8 million for eight Division I-AA conferences.
