Slack-ing off: What to do about Syracuse (and overall college football) attendance?

As the Syracuse Orange football team continues to work through spring practice we turn our attention to the 2019 season and a topic familiar to us: attendance. As this story from Dennis Dodd explores, attendance is an issue across the country.

CFB attendance continues to slip. This time to its lowest point in 22 years. 4 of 5 Power Five conferences are down. Pac-12 lowest since 1982. What's going on? https://t.co/pRhdCmPfJ5

Even though the ACC was the only P5 conference to see an increase it’s a trend that administrators across the country are worried about.
