Football revenues by conference

As college football moves out of non-conference play and into conference play I thought it would be interesting to post some information on the conferences and how they compare.

I found this really cool post at FanBlogs:

Cha-Ching: Football revenues by conference

They list the annual football revenues by conference:

SEC $350,193,187
Big Ten $276,809,402
Big XII $258,812,765
ACC $180,171,498
Pac 10 $176,744,243
Big East $84,659,903
Conference USA $62,565,804
WAC $34,756,625
Mountain West $53,061,049*
Notre Dame $38,596,090
MAC $25,297,901

* 8 teams reporting - Air Force does not release football revenues.


And then the average annual football revenues per school for each conference:

Notre Dame $38,596,090
SEC $35,019,318.70
Big Ten $25,164,491.09
Big XII $$21,567,730.42
Pac 10 $17,674,424.30
ACC $15,014,291.50
Big East $10,582,487.88
Mountain West $6,632,631.13*
Conference USA $5,213,817.00
WAC $3,475,662.50
MAC $2,108,158.42


Pretty amazing that the SEC is so far above everyone and that ND is even above the SEC. I'm a bit surprised that the ACC is below the Pac-10. I expect that to change this year.
