Auburn: Gene Chizik earned an extra $75,000 for notching Auburn's tenth win of the season. If the Tigers defeat UGA this weekend, that figure will rise to $100,000.

Air Force: Troy Calhoun, with the Commander-in-Chief trophy wrapped up, will receive an extra $36,250 this year. With Air Force clinching a bowl bid as well, Calhoun will receive an additional $72,500.

UCF: Head coach George O'Leary has cashed in the last two weeks. For notching his sixth win of the season, O'Leary (per his contract) earned an extra $50,000. When UCF defeated Houston last week for the team's seventh win, O'Leary made another $50,000. When UCF entered the AP Top 25, O'Leary earned another $50,000. That's a quick $100,000.

Wouldn't that be $150,000? Regardless, pretty nice!

Talk about your name coaches with blemishes who got a 2'nd chance?

O'Leary when briefly at Notre Dame got caught with a doctored up resume' as I recall all that. Don't know his career W/L at UCF but they seem happy with their coach--prior blemishes or not.

GMG!
