It looks like having Tulane play Louisiana in Orlando wasn't a great idea in regards to attendance. From the crowd shots, there might be 500 fans in attendance. Maybe.
 
You mean to say that Tulane of the vaunted THE AMERICAN!!!!!!!! is "fan free football" and that pretty much no body in New Orleans cares enough about Tulane to its games at home, let alone travel to Florida? That it is a speck of green in a sea of purple and gold? That really NO BODY CARES? That this random collection of programs are IN, but not SIGNIFICANT IN, random big cities? And, with appropriate name and color changes (hint: log onto any ticket reseller and see where the blow out Fiesta Bowl tickets are coming from) you can say the same about any fan-free program in the non-thing, THE AMERICAN!!!!!!!!!!!

Gee, I wish I had said that.

But, but we won 8 games. And finished 2nd in our division to a team that only lost 45 to 13 to the Sunbelt Champ. That is a quality season.

I’m not arguing attendance but short of ecu every one of those is in a pretty large metro market
 
And, if being IN a pretty large metro market was important, NYU would be the national champions.

Rather it will be decided between teams from such mega cities as Clemson, SC (population 14K; TV market #37 845K, 0.74% of population) - Tuscaloossa, AL (90K; #45 696K - 0.60%) - South Bend, IN (101K; #96 313K, 0.28%) and Norman, OK (110K; #41 722K, 0.63%).

THE AMERICAN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

IN, but not SIGNIFICANT IN, random big cities. None the favorite program in their own towns. Many not the favorite on their own campuses.

The non-thing.

Remember of the 43K USF students, 127 are getting in the bowl game for free. Because they actually used their free ticket to all home games. 127 out of 43,000.

The non-thing.
