USC
Michigan State
Va Tech

Just add the spectators of those stadiums alone, and the TV viewing audience, and I haven't even tapped into The SEC, The Big East, and 10 other divisions, and then there are "little" schools like Western Michigan, and such that hold 20-30 thousand every game.
There is no way, one Nascar race a week beats just the schools I've named in spectators, both live and on TV.

As a whole, college football has more spectators than Nascar, and every other sport, there are just too many teams, and big stadiums.
I'm sure college has a ton of viewers. I don't know a lot abot nascar, I'm just going off what I have read. That page also says: "NASCAR sanctions over 1,500 races at over 100 tracks in 38 states, Canada, and Mexico." That's a lot of races.
