00:15 They're doing okay too.
00:17 Take a look at University of Iowa.
00:19 Last year's revenue beat expectations by about $11 million.
00:24 Talk about $140 million of revenue higher than that.
00:28 What are the biggest contributors to that?
00:31 Well, football about 24 million,
00:34 basketball nearly that about 4 million, 3.5 million,
00:38 and wrestling 1.2 you might expect at Iowa.
00:41 Iowa State's number is pretty significant as well.
00:44 Both reports came in at the same time
00:46 through the state reporting agencies.
00:48 And here's the point, all of the Texas's and Alabama's
00:51 and Georgia's and Ohio State's,

00:55 But what you have to watch out for
