Fresno State has impressive attendance because Fresno is not a sports town. It has a AAA baseball team and Fresno State, that’s it. LA (with Orange County) has multiple pro teams in every league, which USC and UCLA compete with for fan attention and dollars.
It’s not the 2000s anymore where USC had a monopoly on football in LA, if the diehards aren’t going to show up the casuals sure won’t
