SOCON:

113. Birmingham, Ala.
154. Boone, N.C.
165. Cullowhee, N.C.
166. Spartanburg, S.C
185. Charleston, S.C.
200. Chattanooga, Tenn
204. Greenville, S.C
225. Elon, N.C.
232. Statesboro, Ga.

Can't see how they've got Chattanooga, Charleston and Greenville below Boone and Cullowhee since all of them have minor league baseball and Charleston has hockey.

Boone is WAAAY to high. Cullowhee?? what?! Really?! WTF is in Cullowhee?!

These rankings probably don't matter at the top 25 or so.

GWFC:

Davis, CA #201
Vermilllion, SD #202
San Luis Obispo, CA #203
Cedar City, UT #262
Grand Forks, ND #346 I guess hockey doesn't matter in the list unless its pro.

This list is a bunch of crap.

Ranking the Big Sky cities:
40. Portland, OR
52. Sacramento, CA
145. Missoula, MT
156. Ogden, UT
160. Greeley, CO
236. Pocatello, ID
237. Cheney, WA
183. Bozeman, MT
191. Flagstaff, AZ

Interesting that the top two cities are major metropolitan areas, where the FCS teams get little or no press.
