When NBC airs a Notre Dame game, does not the other team also get a piece of that NBC money? Similarly, when Notre Dame goes onto the road, don’t they also get a piece of the ESPN money or whomever is broadcasting that game?

If this is right, how is the money split?

I dont think so but I am not someone in the know about tv of course. I think Notre Dame pays a school for coming to play but they keep the TV money and you get the exposure for playing.

I cannot imagine both schools not getting a piece of the action regardless of what network a game is being played on.

I pulled this from a news article on ND/ACC deal.  I’m not sure how their other games work.  I’m sure they pay teams like Navy to play, but I think they keep all their TV money.

The five football games between Notre Dame and ACC schools will rotate year-by-year – three at ACC sites and two at Notre Dame one season, and then three at Notre Dame and two at ACC sites the next. Games broadcast at ACC sites will fall under the conference’s TV contract, and Notre Dame will own the rights for its home games.

Ok that clear things up.
