[Seaa Blue]

So if you’re scoring at home, we have these projections for TV-related revenue for 2017-18, on a per-school basis:

SEC: $35.6 million
Big Ten: $33 million
Pac-12: $22.95 million

Got to believe the ACC is paying attention.

Got to believe the ACC is paying attention.

And FSU, and USC...but seriously, the football elite have to be thinking about maximizing their take. Whatever happens with conference realignment, the programs will need to make what they are worth compared to other programs or there will be movement.

I have a dream: Pac-12 adds Texas, Oklahoma, Oklahoma State, BYU. B12 adds UConn, Cincy, Memphis, USF, UCF. B12 becomes the island of misfit toys we deserve to be on.

But really B1G please help us.

About methodology...

The author appears to be using, for the SEC, a 50-50 revenue share....it will be a 50-50 PROFIT share (some difference depending on costs).

The Big Ten figure is straight from their projections and depends on the return of the NYC/DC markets...some may figure the projections to be optimistic, some may figure under projected.

As Bobby Bowden used to say..potential means that they ain't done it yet.

At any rate, the SEC and B1G will rake in more than the other P5 conferences....
