Attendance is down (cultural changes) but TV viewing is up.

And, yes, fewer people are going to travel and take up a day or weekend and spend big bucks to go to a football game....they have high definition big screens at home...and can enjoy the game. I was a season ticket holder for over 40 years...but no more. I watch on TV.

Maybe that's why 111 regular season football games last year had 2 million plus viewers.

To contrast...last year, the number of basketball games drawing 2 million or more viewers in regular season was 10....

Basketball may be more about the post season than football....

The big boys will get their stars and championships....the others will compete for the top of the 1st quartile...the chance to finish ranked.

Based on your stats alone with regard to the number of programs, there are many teams in the first quartile that are not ranked.

Sure there are 8 teams in the top quartile that are not ranked....but the prize is to finish Top 25...who knows or really cares about #30 or #32 ?
