The chart in this blog entry ranks all Football Bowl Subdivision
(formerly known as Division I-A) schools by the total revenue they took
in during the 2007-08 reporting year. These revenues include generated
revenue (such as proceeds from ticket sales and sponsorships) and
allocated revenue (such as tuition waivers, money from student fees and
direct institutional support.)

Although Texas is #1, the Big 10 and SEC have four teams before the
Big 12 #2.
