HBCU Official Football Attendance Leaders - Week 6
The Football Championship Subdivision (FCS) HBCU home games or Classics are ranked. The division II games are ranked in descending order of attendance. Road games held at the home stadium of non-HBCUs are reported for comparison purposes, along with official attendance to Big South Conference games for Week 6. Draw your own conclusion regarding the Game Day experience enjoyed in the Big South Conference versus the HBCUs. We get it! Many resource challenged HBCUs need more than two revenue stream (ticket sales & student athletic fees) to support their student-athletes, build new facilities, expand programs and win in the recruitment battles with PWI conferences.
For Week 7, we will compare the HBCUs attendance leaders to the Big Sky Conference football playing members.
