Have we reached peak football?

Versions of this story have been expressed on this forum for a while now but this is the first article I've seen calling out the natty champ game and providing quantitative evidence of what may be waning interest in college football. Do west coasters not care about east coast teams? Do east coast fans not travel to the west coast? What else is at play here to explain why ticket prices for the game are so low?
