I think it has more to do with the product. If Syracuse football had a decade of 8 wins a year the attendance would be a couple thousand more each year.

This Metlife series with Notre Dame made our football program look like a MAC team. That is why I always killed the series. P5 teams should never play home games 300 miles from campus and then road games at the other teams stadium. Especially if that team playing home games  won't fill the stadium up 300 miles from campus. None of the Metlife games except maybe the USC game had more SU fans in attendance than the opponent's fans. The USC game had 39k in a 82.5k stadium. People need to realize that ND completely owned us. Thankfully the ACC bailed Gross/Syracuse out. Now we lost 1 home game which sucks but isn't anything to go insane over. If we never hosted Notre Dame one time which appeared likely because of these Metlife games it would have made Gross/Syracuse get no benefit of ND's affiliation with the ACC.
