More revenue doesn't necessarily mean more profit for the PAC12, would be curious to see how much they spent in the same period.

Still, distributions to member schools grew substantially in what was the conference's first year of nearly equal revenue sharing. Each of the 11 schools other than Utah received about $19.8 million (Utah received $10.2 million, although fellow conference newcomer Colorado received a full share). For Arizona, Oregon State and Washington State, that meant a near-doubling of their money from the conference in one year. For Oregon and Stanford, it meant increases of more than $4 million.
From the same link and that includes everything.

SEC schools received an average payout of $20.8 million from the conference in 2012-13, the first academic year with Texas A&M and Missouri, according to the SEC's new federal tax return.

SEC schools got a million more in conference payout for the same period, and that's before for you even take into consideration school controlled money.

Start up can be hefty, but once and running it gets pretty cheap. The big issue with revenue is both the BTN and PTN get secondary boost from advertising revenues.
Say the PAC gets 75 cents in carriage and 10 cents in ad revenue, the real boost is the back end if carriage goes to 1 dollar and ad revenue goes to 2 dollars. The downside to the SEC deal is they get no ad revenue during the life of the deal as ESPN pockets that money so the mouse gets fatter. Disney is fast becoming the bloated rat.
