24/7 Wall St. reviewed a recent Forbes article to determine the most valuable college football teams in the country. Average profits and revenues for the past three years were provided by Forbes. The program’s all-time record came from statistics site Sports Reference. In years past, multiple different teams would often claim to be national champions in the same season, often being recognized as such by outlets like the Associated Press and Football Writers Association of America. The total number of national championships claimed was provided by the NCAA.
The teams with the highest revenues are the traditionally dominant programs of college football. With the exception of the independent Notre Dame, each of the 25 most valuable programs plays in the so-called Power 5 conferences. The Southeastern Conference, the most successful conference of the 21st century, leads the way with 10 of the 25 most valuable teams. That is followed by the Big Ten with seven teams, the Pac-12 with three, and the ACC and Big 12 with two apiece.
