    Conference reallignment: 1964

    I found a link to this article on a Houston message board. Interesting read.

    Very interesting article. Shows you how far college football has come since 1964. According to this article, the average stadium in the Big 8 held only 38K. I also found this pretty remarkable:

    Alabama’s Denny Stadium in 1964 seated 43,000. Think about that. Today, Bryant-Denny Stadium seats 101,821. And SMU has been downsizing for decades, going from the Cotton Bowl’s 75,000 to Texas Stadium’s 65,000 to the current Ford Stadium’s 32,000. If this keeps up, the Mustangs one day will be playing at Highland Park Junior High.
