The fact of the matter is that the money doesn't matter all that much anymore. By that, I mean the SEC schools have plenty, and so do the Big 12 schools. One league distributing 2-3 million a year more than the other in a given year doesn't make a difference.
What does matter is how the money is used. The Big 12 has been flat out told and shown that not having enough teams for a CCG puts them at a disadvantage. Unfortunately for them, they have chosen to ignore their huge issue because they're worried about losing money when they should be worried about losing playoff appearances.
All the money in the world doesn't do a football program a bit of good when you choose to guard it like the dragon in Beowulf.
