Google 20 biggest stadiums in the world & outside of the north Korean & Maracana & the M.C.G
Virtually all are College owned stadiums.

Yep. And the Michigan Wolverines haven't had a crowd lower than 100,000 since the 1970s. Think their stadium is the second largest in the world after the one in North Korea. Though having been to Ann Arbor (where the University of Michigan is) you wouldn't know from the outside as it is built into the ground.

The bowl games were on/around new year, but the national final is this week I believe.

I just had a look at that stadium and its impressive, see what can be done when you keep building on it and updating it. The last update was 20 years ago which increased capacity to 107,601 which is impressive.

A few years ago a friend of mine from new Jersey was telling me about the college game and how people love it more than the nfl game itself. I couldn't believe that, but he explained it well saying that over the years theres alot of people who went through that university and they keep their aligence for life hence why the college games are so well supported.

I know I couldn't really give two hoots for when I went, its a different mentality.
