The University of Alabama athletics department was the Southeastern Conference revenue king in fiscal year 2022.
The Crimson Tide’s revenue of $214.36 million in the 12 months from July 1, 2021, to June 30, 2022, ranked first among the league’s 13 public universities. $130.9 million of Alabama’s revenue, or 61%, came from the school’s football program.
The Northwest Arkansas Business Journal compiled the data through public records requests. The research does not include private schools that are not subject to public records laws. Vanderbilt University, a private school, is the only SEC school not included.
