That doesn't make sense. Why wouldn't it just go to the next team in line? Its a much higher payout then the other bowls the have below it.
That's what I thought. The best I can find is that the contracts for the other bowls under the Citrus bowl explicitly say that the #3 team goes here, #4 team goes here, etc. and those bowls aren't willing to let the Citrus pick.

Maybe that's why the SEC re-negotiated their bowl-selection process. Since every team gets the same cut, it doesn't matter who goes where financially, as long as every bowl gets filled.
