Revenue is a big part of that, but keeping expenses down can help mitigate the situation.
The table below shows the total revenue, expenses, and profit or loss in millions of dollars for each of the top schools in the West, according to Mapping College Athletics.
Profit or loss data is not available for Air Force, USC, and Stanford.
