That's really surprising to me - my favorite college football team regularly sells out their 100k seat stadium during the regular season. Seems like the superbowl is leaving a lot of money on the table.

No joke, the largest college stadiums are bigger than the largest NFL stadiums.

well, fwiw Cowboys Stadium can expand to 105K and has had multiple events at that capacity, which would put it at #3 on that list.

they make a lot more money from TV

When they had the super bowl in Dallas they got 103K in the stadium which has an 80K seating capacity (expandable to 105K)
