how many upsets were pulled off by non-BCS autobid conference teams beating BCS autobid conference teams? and what were the payouts of those games?

Great wins by the FCS and interesting article/$ figure, but I wouldn't have settled for a penny less than $2.5 million.

It warms my heart to see FBS schools have to pay hundreds of thousands of dollars to lose in their own barn while expecting a blowout. Oregon State might not even be ranked again this year! This should go as a lesson to FBS players who need to take every opponent seriously.
