This past year, like many before, the Big Ten leads the attendance parade. The league occupies the top three (3) spots (Michigan 110,246, Penn State 107,379, & Ohio State 104,663). The Southeastern Conference places teams in six (6) of the the next seven (7); Bama, LSU, Tennessee, A&M, UGA, & Florida. In other words, the B-10 & the SEC dominated College Football Attendance in 2022. The two conferences placed nine (9) teams in the Top Ten!

The lone interloper is Texas (B-12), who will be entering the Southeastern Conference in 2024. That fact means, in 2024 the entire Top Ten will be filled by the SEC (7) & the B-10 (3).

The Top 25 teams include ten (10) from the SEC, seven (7) from the B-10, three (3) from the ACC, two (2) with the P-12, the B-12 has also has two (2) & one (1) Independent, ND!

The highest ranked Groups of Five (G5) program is East Carolina (39,647), from the American Athletic Conference (AAC), @ #57. That said, Central Florida came in @ 54th (41,542), yet will be moving from the AAC to the B-12 for the 2023 season. So technically UCF was playing out just one year from Power Five (P5) status and it is not much of a stretch to see how that fact could have bolstered their home attendance.

This chart will be kept up all year under the Blog heading (on the Menu Bar at the top of any page) for your reference. This will give you a sense of the environment/atmosphere your team will be playing in when they travel.
