The Big Ten will make the most money of any conference from this year's NCAA tournament.
With six of its teams playing in a total of 16 games, the Big Ten will get about $25.6 million from the NCAA over a six-year period.
Conferences receive a unit for each game their teams play in the tournament except the final. Those units are then paid out in each of the next six years, with the value of those units increasing by approximately $5,000 per year.
