With a few exceptions, like schools with 200-game sellout streaks and the like, if Arkansas is having a good year it will draw more fans than if it is having a bad year. But "good" and "bad" have never been dependent on making playoffs. If CFB moves to a pro-leagues style "playoff culture", that could change, and it could work against home attendance, because I suspect more teams can create an impression of having a "good year" in November under the current standards than under a playoff standard. ...

That is a point to consider ... the notion of "going to a bowl" has not lost all of its luster even though it's value has been substantially reduced by all of the "made for TV" bowls.
