Potential offseason discussion - how a D3 game drew 45K

Ithaca and Cortland set a D3 record Saturday with 45K people in attendance for their game at the Giants/Jets stadium. Many thoughts emerge ... when’s the last FCS game that’s drawn that much? Probably Ivy League since a few have giant stadiums. Also, how did they secure an nfl stadium and how did they draw so many fans? Honestly not sure if Furman would hit 45K total for the year including Point game plus 2 playoff games. And I don’t think Furman is the outlier. I’m sure many in FCS would have that dubious claim. A bummer.
