USA TODAY Sports reviewed contracts for 106 of this season's 116 games between the FBS and FCS. Eleven games included payouts of at least $600,000 and six of at least $650,000 but none approach the Vandals' seven-figure paycheck.
- Also on Saturday, Michigan State will pay Youngstown State $725,000.
- Washington paid Montana $675,000 for last weekend's 13-7 loss, the biggest upset of the young season.
- Idaho will make $675,000 to face Oregon State on Sept. 18.
- That same weekend, California will pay Sacramento State $675,000.
- Miami (Fla.) will pay Central Connecticut State $650,000 on Sept. 25.
Indiana and Idaho inked a two-game contract in 2015 that will pay $1.3 million for a second trip to Bloomington in 2022.
Payouts over $1 million are not uncommon in games between FBS teams from the Power Five and Group of Five. There were six such games in the SEC alone in Week 1, led by Kent State making $1.9 million to play at Texas A&M.
