Thanks for the update.It’d be interesting if Houston made it in. I guess that would kick Atlanta out in favor of Arlington. I can still see Atlanta (or Orlando) getting a 4-year (plus) stint as the #7 bowl with first choice of teams after those in the 12-year semifinal rotation. Orlando would probably be more ready for that spot while Atlanta would probably call dibs on the next best SEC team available.

This article is really shaky. The headline said that Houston had the highest bid, but the article didn’t say that, just that Houston, Dallas and New Orleans were the three highest.
JerseyGuy is also talking about a rotation for the Champions Bowl, and might be confusing it with the rotation for the semifinals.

That said, I believe that Houston will put up the most money. ”Champions Bowl at JerryWorld” would do more total revenue, but Jerry & Co are comparing that to the revenue they get from being an Access Bowl. Houston is either going to land the Champions Bowl, and be one of the top 5 revenue games of the year, or be the Houston Meineke Car Care Bowl.

Lets say Champions Bowl tickets average $500 each, Cotton Bowl tickets $400 each, and Houston Bowl tickets $100 each.
Champions Bowl @ JErryWorld: 110,000 x $500 = $55,000,000
Cotton Bowl @ JerryWorld: 110,000 x $400 = $44,000,000. So upgrading from Cotton Bowl to Champions Bowl is worth $11M.

Champions Bowl @ Reliant Stadium: 70,000 x $500 = $35,000,000
Houston Bowl @ Reliant Stadium: 70,000 x $100 = $7,000,000. So upgrading from the Meineke Bowl to the Champions Bowl is worth $28M.

Everything has a price tag that makes it not worth it. The Cotton Bowl committee hits that point way before the Houston group does.
