Not only that, advertisers spent $500 million more on advertising during NCAA Basketball then they did on NCAA Football.

wow, I have to say I didn't see that coming.

Imagine they got teams from some big time leagues in the Final Four this season?
This is kind of older data but it probably isn't too far off. Regular season CFB gets a lot more advertising dollars than CBB. The difference is obviously the tournament and the fact no one watches bowl games. That is why I have never understood why CFB doesn't do a 8-team playoff. They would make killing in advertising and TV revenue.
