It seems the two neutral site games cost us a bit. Sure, you get a guaranteed payout, but you lose the normal home game revenue. Of course, the recruiting gain in playing in Atlanta and Jacksonville can't really be measured.

I wondered about that too... maybe they don't report because they're private?

We used to play in Birmingham two or three times a year. Don't know how that affected revenue in those days.

To take a page out of your own book, stop living in the past! It's 2009 not 2007-2008...

I would venture to say that the results of a similar list for 2009-2010 will not see Auburn has high on this list, considering that season tickets are still for sale.

We would be higher if walmart and dollar general merchandise brought in as much profit as the official nike gear.

Those are Revenues...atleast a few years ago UGA was the most "profitable" as our AD is cheap as shite (see Richts salary, our lack of an Indoor practice facility, etc).

Didn't expect Auburn to be that high not selling out season tickets regularly and all.

But its still officially liscensed gear, so I would think some money would make its way to the Alabama Athletic Department.

That seems to be the difference. AU had 8 home games to our 7.
