SWAC AGAIN LEADS FCS IN FOOTBALL ATTENDANCE Duane Lewis
BIRMINGHAM – For the second consecutive season and 29^th time in the past 30 years, the Southwestern Athletic Conference led the nation in football attendance. Since the beginning of the Football Championship Subdivision (previously known as Division 1-AA) in 1978, the Southwestern Athletic Conference has consistently led the nation in attendance. Only in the 2005 season, when Hurricane’s Katrina and Rita caused damage to the Gulf Coast region of the United States forcing games to be cancelled, did the SWAC not lead the nation in attendance. photo courtesy Southern University Sports Information Department
