The Collegiate Licensing Company this week released its annual rankings of the schools who sold the most merchandise over the last year, and the University of Alabama is once again near the top of the list.
The Crimson Tide came in second, just behind the University of Texas, who has topped the list for an incredible nine years in a row.
Georgia (5), Florida (6), LSU (7) and Texas A&M (9) were the other SEC schools in the top 10.
Auburn, coming off an SEC Championship and a run to the national title game, came in at number 11.
The rankings were compiled from royalties reported between July 1, 2013 and June 30, 2014. Royalties for all collegiate merchandise legally sold over that twelve-month period totaled $4.59 billion dollars.
