The Mountain West and Pac-12 conferences have seen significant financial gains from the NCAA Tournament. San Diego State's win over Yale adds to Mountain West's record unit shares, totaling 10 units. The conference is set to receive extra revenue over the next six years. Meanwhile, the Pac-12 has also earned 10 units, translating to over $20 million in revenue for Wazzu and Oregon State. The success in March Madness for both conferences is leading to substantial financial benefits for their member schools.
