2) bowl revenue is split among conference teams (unlike at the Big 12 where they came from). Mizzou fans talk about losing money to go to a bowl, but the way it works is (if I remember it right)... each team gets 1/15 of the bowl revenue of every single team in the conference, plus 1/15 additional of the bowl you go to. Minimal bowls pay out what, about a mil? You are taking bowl revenue from every other team in the conference by refusing; yet you will take your share from those that do go.
Bowl revenue is split after travel expenses are paid. So after a couple hundred grand comes out of the Famous Idaho Potato Bowl, the other schools would get like $10k. If you need the $10k, we can write yall a check.

The REC and SEC officials in Bham thought a Mizzou post season loss would water down the SEC brand and cause Bama's SOS to weaken in 2016.
