It's true about large state universities....


helping TV contracts because of their huge student enrollments and large living alumni bases.

Here are the average student enrollments for the Power 5 conferences:

1. Big 10 41,245 students
2. Pac 12 35,327
3. SEC 32,712
4. Big 12 28,712
5. ACC 22,821

The Pac 12's problem is California is like New York in that they aren't as crazy about college football as most of the country. I wonder if moving the Rams to LA will hurt USC and UCLA fan support in the near future? Those 2 are no longer the "only game" in town. The ACC has 5 members (BC, Duke, Miami, Notre Dame, and Wake) with under 20,000 students.
