  • 2015-16 EM Cup Results
    LABORATORY FOR THE STUDY OF INTERCOLLEGIATE ATHLETICS 8th Annual Excellence in Management Cup Final Results 8/17/2016 This document holds the Laboratory for the Study of Intercollegiate Athletics research findings on which athletic departments are most efficient with their finances in terms of championship wins. For more information, visit lsia.tamu.edu. What is the Excellence in Management Cup? The Excellence in Management Cup was established by the Laboratory for the Study of Intercolle- giate Athletics (LSIA) at Texas A&M University in order to address the question of: Who is the most economically efficient athletic department in Football Bowl Subdivision (formerly Division I-A)? The unique, yet simple, scoring system awards more points to athletic departments that win con- ference and national championships while efficiently allocating money to win these championships. Other championship cups do not address natural competitive advantages given to universities that have higher operating budgets and play more sports (thus, more opportunities to win champion- ships). The Scope and Purpose of the EM Cup The purpose of the EM Cup is to bring awareness about NCAA athletic departments that are max- imizing fiscal resources leading to championship victories. In other words, when less money is spent winning championships will lead to a higher score in the Excellence in Management Cup. How are the EM Cup scores calculated? Due to athletic departments being unique in size, economic strength, and number of opportunities available to win championships, the EM Cup results are calculated using a formula that will even the playing field. A database was created to tally the following information in the scoring system depicted below pictorially.

    PRESS RELEASE FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE | OCTOBER 23, 2020 CONTACT | Tony Fay PR, Tony Fay, 972.273.0794, [email protected] ‘BOWL SEASON’ ANNOUNCED AS NEW NAME OF COLLEGE FOOTBALL’S POSTSEASON Logo and visual identity developed for the annual “Celebration of College Football” DALLAS, TEXAS (October 23, 2020) -- The Football Bowl Association is getting a new name and brand: Bowl Season. The debut of the name change, logo and website for the organization is part of a major brand overhaul announced today by Executive Director Nick Carparelli. The new Bowl Season tagline, “A Celebration of College Football,” embraces the grand tradition of the bowl system and its enduring value to student-athletes. Highlighting the broader university community, including spirit squads, marching bands, student athletic staff and fans, Bowl Season will work with all existing bowls to promote the benefits of the entire bowl system. Carparelli has collaborated over the last six months with leaders of the 44 bowl games, each of the 10 FBS conferences, media partners and other stakeholders to build consensus and solidify plans for the new brand. “For four decades, the Football Bowl Association has served as a staunch advocate of the bowl system,” said Carparelli. “But until now, it’s been a behind-the-scenes organization designed to facilitate conversation among bowl leadership and stakeholders. Since joining the organization last spring, I’ve listened to our membership’s clear desire for a new identity-- to rebrand the FBA to speak directly to those who love this sport.” “The stretch from mid-December through the first week of January marks one of the most endlessly entertaining times on the sports calendar,” Carparelli continues.

  • 2012-13 EM Cup Results
    What is the Excellence in Management Cup? The Excellence in Management Cup was established by the Laboratory for the Study of Intercollegiate Athletics (LSIA) at Texas A&M University in order to address the question of: Who is the most economically efficient athletic department in Football Bowl Subdivision (formerly Division I-A)? The unique, yet simple, scoring system awards more points to athletic departments that win conference and national championships while efficiently allocating money to win these championships. Other championship cups do not address natural competitive advantages given to universities that have higher operating budgets and play more sports (thus, more opportunities to win championships). The Scope and Purpose of the EM Cup The purpose of the EM Cup is to bring awareness about NCAA athletic departments that are maximizing fiscal resources leading to championship victories. In other words, when less money is spent winning championships will lead to a higher score in the Excellence in Management Cup. How are the EM Cup scores calculated? Because athletic departments are unique from one another in size, economic strength, and number of opportunities available to win championships, the EM Cup results are calculated using a formula that will even the playing field. A database was created to tally the following information in the scoring system depicted below pictorially. National and conference champions are tallied for each NCAA and Conference-specific sanctioned sport and awarded to the winners. More value is placed upon the national championships than conference championships in the formula. Then, each the athletic department’s operating expenses and number of sports played at the university are entered into the database.
