Schools that fill their football stadiums (best and worse)
Here is an off-season article that I read that did not involve conference expansion.

Here is the top 25 and the bottom 25 schools that fill their football stadium. Some may surprise you.

Besides winning games (which cures all ills) what has your school done to increase attendance at local football games? What would you like to see your school do to increase attendance?

And go...

Good article. I will so though that so much of that is dependent on opponents, weather, and success.

A 1-11 UTEP team that plays 2 FCS opponents and has several bad weather games, but an 8-4 UTEP that hosts a P5 and plays several other interesting opponents in nice weather will have much better attendance.

I didn't see SC on either list, but our attendance was way down last year because we had a makeup games on championship weekend in the rain that had probably about 10k people or less show up. When you only have 7 home games, that is enough to skew your figures by several percent alone.

The one that really stands out is Nebraska. They have ZERO fair-weather fans and for meaningless games in potential cold in November, I'm impressed.

I have no idea what you’re trying to say here
