College is still popular with that kind of play.

College popularity has more to do with the lifelong ties people have to the college. Far fewer people have ties to a professional team and the popularity largely revolves around the quality of the product. Few cities don't give a **** and will sellout for a shitty team.

More people have lifelong ties to pro teams or "local" college teams if the parents watch. Most people where I grew up were fans of the Cardinals, both baseball and football, or some other pro teams, not college.

The ties to the school are a bigger draw than the level of play for college football. Pro football, like other pro sports, is the best of the best playing the sport.

The NFL and NFLPA have been sacrificing the level of play for over 10 years and adding an 220 additional players to the league isn't going to help with that.
