The amount the 14 schools in the SEC last year only inched up, from $51.3 million to $52.5 million because Oklahoma and Texas received a cut

The SEC announced $808.4 million in revenue distribution to its 16 member universities for the 2023-24 fiscal year, which ended Aug. 31, 2024. Included in that figure are Oklahoma and Texas, which officially joined the conference in July 2024.

Texas and Oklahoma, which officially joined the SEC in July, received nearly half of what the other 14 member schools got in their payouts this year.

Heading for financial windfall, the SEC actually saw a dip in revenue after payments to Texas and Oklahoma worth $27.5 million.
