Monmouth County spent $6,272,313 on men's collegiate football teams in 2023, an increase of 0.7% over the previous year, according to the U.S. Department of Education.

This translates to roughly 20% of all spending for sports teams at the two universities in the county during the 2023 season.

The average sports expenses at Monmouth County have grown 152.4% since 2010.

College football is one of the biggest sports in the U.S., with some college teams eclipsing NFL teams in terms of attendance and profit.

In 2022, after a decades-long fight, student athletes nationwide gained the right to profit from their names, likenesses, and images as a result of a flurry of new state laws and an NCAA policy change.
