apparently they're overspending by like 2.5x with this Texas offer..... ND got a $90M/ 10 year deal last year.

But pulling Michigan, gives them at least 2 nationally televised games with them outfitting both teams and the Army/Navy Game.

Outfit most profittable Athletic program:hula:Outfit 3 schools with historic rivalries against each other
even more so, few schools buy apparel like texas and michigan. I'm going to say just by VISUAL judgement, I see the most:

  • michigan
  • texas
  • notre dame
  • osu [prison wear]
  • georgia
  • bama
  • TN
  • OK
gear over anyone....i'll see if I can find numbers to corroborate though

EDIT: that was quick:

Oregon and Auburn to face off in 2019

http://www.al.com/auburnfootball/in...gon_in_2019.html#incart_2box_sports_index.ssf

Auburn's quest to play a high-profile game in 2019 has landed a marquee opponent in a big-time venue.

The Tigers will open the 2019 season against Oregon at AT&T Stadium in Arlington, Texas.

The rematch of the 2011 BCS Championship Game will pit the programs against each other for only the second time in history. The game is the 11th in the AdvoCare Classic series and will be played Aug. 31, 2019.

"I'm thrilled that Auburn will face Oregon in an epic match-up of two elite programs on a big stage to open the 2019 season," Auburn athletics director Jay Jacobs said in a statement. "I know how much it means to our players to have an opportunity to play in high-profile games; it is one reason they choose to come to Auburn. I'm also happy for the Auburn family, the best fans in college football. They always travel in masses to support our program, so this is a great reward for them as well."

Auburn defeated Oregon 22-19 on a field goal as time expired in the national championship.

AL.com will update this story.
