While the ACC has been slower on the take than some of its power five counterparts (see: TV network), there is positive financial news for the league, as the N&O’s Andrew Carter reported on Friday. The ACC is now ahead of the Pac-12 and Big 12 in its average per-team payout, though it still lags behind the SEC and Big Ten.
All five leagues saw significant revenue increases during the 2014-15 fiscal year. The SEC, for example, went from $325.9 million in revenue in 2013-14 to $527 million in 2014-15. The ACC saw an increase of more than $100 million, to $403.
