Interest in college football is at an all time high nationwide.
The problem is specific to students these days. In this day and age of high def tvs and cell phones, kids have no attention span and are used to experiencing the world through some gadget, not live and in person.
The non-game experience has vastly improved and the gameday experience has largely stayed the same (or gotten worse due to ridiculous prices).
It's a nationwide problem.
They need to vastly improve the in stadium conditions. TV revenue is where they make their money these days, stop trying to bleed every single person at the games with $80 tickets to beat cream puff U or $8 soft drinks, etc.

I've been saying it for years: quit playing so many cupcake games. And my alma mater is guilty as anyone.
The SEC needs to go to
9 games and require 1 OOC against a P5. And stipulate that the remaining 2 games cannot be against a FCS school.
This will go a long way to fixing things
