Having so many games available on television makes it tough to attract big crowds to the stadium.
That’s why North Carolina senior associate athletic director Rick Steinbacher says the challenge is to “try to make that in-stadium experience as unique and as special and as exciting as it can possibly be so it’s harder to choose to stay home than come to the game.“Give the fans something unique and make them feel part of something when they’re in the stadium in a way that you don’t when you’re at home,” he said.

“I’s a little more noticeable for the Hokies, whose 93-game sellout streak at Lane Stadium ended last month when there were some 4,000 empty seats for their home opener against Western Carolina.”
Well, hey, they schedule meaningless crap games against meaningless crap schools, and they are surprised when no one shows up?
Who knows? Maybe the fans actually have gotten some education along the way, and they are now able to see through the BS?
