It is not true at all that Football allows the other sports to survive. It is being a member of the SEC that gives us the funding. Football gives you bowl games money, but a regional host weekend gives just as much as a bowl game. Then you throw in super regional hosting.
I will have to find it but the year we hosted ND in super regional MSU split money with ND and still made more money than the bowl for that year. That is from the school database.

But wasn't the baseball money from multiple games while the bowl, of course, was just one game?
