A lot of those numbers do not surprise me, but some do. NMSU is located pretty much in the El Paso Metropolitan Area, but draws horribly!! I understand that UTEP is a big draw but still, it isn't like there that much to do around Las Cruces, NM or El Paso, TX. The Aggies need to replace whoever markets their football teams, and get someone who can. Also, the Aggies need to join preferably the Mountain West Conference, but failing that once again, needs to see what they can do to get the Sunbelt to take them again.
As for NIU, that is a surprise as well considering how football crazy Chicago is. NIU needs to get their name out there more often.
UMass should have a lot more support than the numbers show. Maybe they can talk to the Patriots about playing some games in their stadium, especially when BC is on the road.
CMU stands out to me as well, but I'm attributing that to the poor coach that they had in the past.
