We recently took a look at the schools that make the most money in college sports. And while a large percentage of that money does come from the football programs, some schools are better at making money with a football than others.
And not surprisingly, the top of the list is dominated by schools from the SEC. Of the top ten money-makers in college football, six are from the SEC. However, the top two spots come from other conferences (data via AL.com)...
