The Rose Bowl has done one thing that has really helped them. They have kept the game on New Year's Day. That alone will ensure larger numbers.
After that a decent amount of the numbers they pull on tv aren't from actual fans, it is just the historical pull. My Grandmother said she watched the Rose Bowl this year. When I questioned her about it it turns out she just had the game on in the background but was doing other things. She didn't even know who was in it. (She said a Red Team which she guessed was Ohio State.) She went on to explain that she has the Rose Bowl on almost every year since my grandfather passed since it was New Year Tradition.
