Can You Guess the 20 Most Valuable College Football Teams?

From Forbes via Yahoo! Sports comes an interesting article about the 20 most valuable college football teams. Can you guess all 20? I tried, and got 17 of the 20 correct. To try it yourself, write down 20 teams you think will make the list, then compare it to the answers at the bottom of the article (cleverly hidden as white text; select all text to reveal the answers).

Here's a hint: the list is formulated based on "what the football programs contribute to four important beneficiaries: their universities, athletic departments, their conferences, via the distribution of bowl-game revenue, and local communities with a vested interest in the team."

In other words: huge stadiums with large attendance, stadium renovations adding premium seating, merchandising royalties, TV revenues, bowl game revenues, loyal boosters, corporate sponsorship deals, etc.

The answers (select text to reveal):

1.  Notre Dame
2.  Texas
3.  Georgia
4.  Michigan
5.  Florida
6.  LSU
7.  Tennessee
8.  Auburn
9.  Alabama
10. Ohio State
11. Oklahoma
12. South Carolina
13. Penn State
14. Southern Cal
15. Arkansas
16. Texas A&M
17. Washington
18. Nebraska
19. Michigan State
20. Wisconsin

My omissions:

Included Florida State, Iowa, and BYU instead of South Carolina, Michigan State, and Washington
