Notre Dame to rake in $1.3 million from BCS this year

Just a friendly reminder: Everyone's favorite one-win team will receive a check for approximately $1.3 million dollars this year for not playing in the Bowl Championship Series.

From the BCS Media Guide:

Notre Dame is guaranteed 1/66th of the net revenues after expenses, or approximately $1.3 million. Notre Dame will receive $4.5 million when its team is a participant.
You will recall that Notre Dame renegotiated its BCS agreement in 2005 to guarantee a payout, even if the Irish did not play in a BCS game, in exchange for a lower guarantee in years when the team did qualify.
