This was discussed a few weeks ago. It's also interesting to note how much each team spent. Florida spent more money than most teams made total.

A lot of Bammer revenue comes from recruiting national champion t-shirts, and "got nick?" t-shirts.

Living in the New Orleans area, the 2 previously mentioned are the only one's I've seen.

Those are 2 more solid T's however.

USC rarely fills their stadium, that program falls off a cliff when they aren't winning.

no USC is not spending money on five star recruits. As a private school it does not have to release those figures.

not true. USC has excellent participation and last year tied LSU for fans in the stadium. I went there in the 70's and the stadium filled every saturday.

Auburn season ticket holders and other Auburn patrons should ask for a refund. Auburn was the only school in the SEC that did not participate in either :

* a bowl game
* NCAA basketball tournament
* NCAA baseball tournament

Where's the bang for their buck ?

SC loses out on a lot of money because of the Pac-10s horrible TV contracts and bowl tie ins, especially when compared to the SEC and Big-10 who clean up. Mix that with 6 home games compared to 7 or 8 for most SEC schools and the numbers don't look too hot

Also, I'd be surprised if SC even releases this type of data

That's after they gave up on their team and left in the Troy State game. The stadium was full at the beginning.

Listen I'm just givin the facts cuz I knew that a USC fan saying that they matched LSU's attendance numbers was a load of bologna.
