There are many more factors involved. How much of that money does UNC and Duke put into their football program? It's all about keeping up with the Jones's. Duke nor Unc will spend the majority on creating a better football product, which will increase the annual payout. We all know that!

Right now there are only two schools that have proven they will spend a butt load of money on football, and that is us and FSU.

which the $EC out-earned us. What he doesn't say is it was pretty even through 2010 and then they blew past us like we were standing still. As the coots tell us all the time, it's not about the past; it's about the present and the future. The ACC will become less competitive over time the way things are now.

In the last two years, the SEC has distributed approximately $35.75 million per school, the ACC $23.99 million. That’s about $5.88 million more per SEC school per year, a trend that would hamstring the ACC if sustained long-term.
The primary disparity is football television rights. The SEC reported $113 million in 2010-11, the ACC $42.83 million.
That more than trumped the ACC’s edge in bowl money ($36.73 million to $31.3 million) and basketball television rights ($36.5 million to $31.1 million).
Since then the ACC has lost the Gator Bowl. I'm not sure how that will affect future ACC bowl payouts.
I find it fascinating that the ACC bowl payouts are about equal to the basketball television rights. So conference bowls make as much as the whole basketball season if I'm interpreting it right. Before all this came out recently, I never had a clue that football made so much more than basketball. Wow.
The gap between the SEC and ACC will only grow larger, which means big trouble for us if we stay. And with such a large gap between the ACC and the other Big 4, that means the ACC is set up for school defections. Someone will leave, whether it's us or not. Schools do not want to be left behind. If others leave and we don't then, well I don't even want to think about what scenario.
