Attendance overall has been decreasing. In a lot of cases, people can't justify the cost of showing up for games, that shite gets expensive even if you have the money to burn. The powers that be are banking big time on TV money being there forever and that's not always a sure fire bet.

I graduated in 1968. I know many alumni from the '60s through the '90s. Quite a few of us can easily afford season tickets and the Hartman Fund, and the occasional travel to an away game. But many have also been directing their excess donations to the University General Fund or to certain specific programs.
If the school wants to rely on TV money, more of those donations will go elsewhere and fans will have tailgate parties at the lake and watch the game on TV. Several of us dropped our WLOCP tickets years ago and now have a golf week somewhere and watch the game on TV.
