A recent article by NOLA.com the is week revealed how LSU is looking to bring in more money to the athletic department in the new era of College Football.

According to the report, advertisements will be displayed at the 25-yard lines at Tiger Stadium this fall, generating "multiple millions of dollars a year."

Schools were allowed to sell space on playing surfaces for the first time last year, and Cox had a logo on the floor at LSU basketball games. Now, sponsorships are coming to the football field.

LSU officials declined to identify the company that will appear in Tiger Stadium. Harris said the ads produce “multiple millions of dollars a year.” There will not be any advertisements at midfield or on the back line of the end zone, which are both permissible under NCAA rules. Harris added the design will incorporate LSU’s colors.

LSU is also considering adding sponsored patches to jerseys, pending NCAA approval.

At the same time, LSU hopes the NCAA will allow schools to sell patches on their jerseys, something Harris said also generates “multiple millions of dollars a year.” LSU has identified a partner, which officials declined to name, if the rule changes.

LSU has mapped out where the patches would go on every jersey, from cross country to football. Most of them would appear on the chest in purple and gold.
