Alabama Trounces Everybody Else in Athletic Spending

Off the field, the contest is even more lopsided. Clemson spent $24 million on football in 2015, more than 75 percent of top-tier football schools—and still less than half of the $51 million football budget at Alabama.

The Crimson Tide also earns more: Alabama’s football program brings in $97 million, more than twice what Clemson’s does—in fact, more than the South Carolina school’s entire athletics budget.

You would think they would spend some of that extra money on making their crappy school better at the education thing vs just being a football factory.
