Not sure if the students have been mentioned since there have been free tickets for them, but I wanted to share an idea.

My sister was in the marching band along with Sour Sitrus Society. During her career there, everybody involved became a part of this "club" (think of it like a points club). Not sure of the exact numbers but for each football game they played at, they'd receive 5 points and for basketball they'd receive about 3-4 points. If they played a soccer game or lacrosse game, they'd get more points (like 8-10). Eventually this adds up and the band would pick the members that would travel to Big East/ACC/NCAA Tournament, bowl games, etc.

They should do this with students. As a freshman you start at zero but the more sports you attend, the more points you obtain. Once you hit a certain amount of points, you qualify for some solid perks:

100 pts - option for lower level at basketball (or something like this)
300 pts - top priority for football/basketball tickets
500 pts - first dibs at BE/ACC Tournament tickets for basketball
600 pts - first dibs at NCAA Tournament tickets
700 pts - first dibs at Bowl Game/Final Four tickets

This brings more reason for students to attend not only football games, but things like soccer, softball, etc. Most of the olympic sports are free to attend as a student so it doesn't cost them anything to go AND they're supporting the olympic sports along with increasing their chances at the stuff EVERYBODY wants (bowl game tickets, Final Four tickets).
