Who would be worth more as a pro franchise? Study gives Auburn edge over Alabama

What would the Auburn and Alabama football programs be worth in if they were pro franchises?

 A whole lot of money, according to today's Wall Street Journal.

The Journal said today that Auburn is the sixth most valuable football program in the nation, checking in a cool $508.1 million. Alabama is eighth at $476 million. You know, almost a billion dollars, total.

That's good, but Texas and Michigan are the runaway leaders. Texas is first at a whopping $761.7 million and Michigan is second at $731.9 million. Florida is the most valuable SEC team, coming in third nationally at $599.7 million. Five SEC teams are in the Top 10 and nine are among the 18 most valuable programs.

The Journal says Ryan Brewer, an assistant professor of finance at Indiana University-Purdue University Columbus, calculated the value of the programs based on each program's revenues and expenses and made cash-flow adjustments, risk assessments and growth projections for each school.

Says the Journal: "The resulting figures represent what the teams might fetch if they could be bought and sold like pro franchises."

The complete list of all major-college football programs is on the Journal's website.

On the off-chance that the fairy tales ain't bunk
And Imma keep a bottle of that funk
To get motel parking lot, balcony crunk.

I'm telling you our players make lower salaries, thereby gaining us more profit.  The Tide pay too much.

He looked at the average per capita income of the respective fan bases.  That's why Bammer's wear thrift store $5.00 Got 12 T-shirts and Auburn people wear $60.00 Under Armour hoodies.

You meet a man on the Oregon Trail. He tells you his name is Terry. You laugh and tell him: "That's a girl's name!" Terry shoots you. You have died of dissin' Terry.

That's why they're able to get the $5.00 shirt rather than the $3.00 shirt with the holes in it.

This article is obviously completely flawed and incorrect.  They didn't take into account the fact that Saban is worth 3 - 4 million redneck souls, worth roughly $23,457.32.

Redskins cornerback DeAngelo Hall said, "Guys don't mind hitting Michael Vick in the open field, but when you see Cam, you have to think about how you're going to tackle him. He's like a big tight end coming at you."

My doctor told me I needed to stop masturbating.  I asked him why, and he said, "because I'm trying to examine you."
