Mask Policies for Football Stadiums of FBS Institutions

This visualization shows the mask policies for football stadiums of Football Bowl Subdivision (FBS) institutions which is the top-level college football in the United States. I compared the distribution of mask policies in Fall 2021 across FBS conferences. Overall, the Pac-12, Big Ten, and the ACC had the largest percentage of schools that required masks indoors or outdoors. On the other hand, the Sun Belt, Conference USA, and Southeastern Conference had the largest percentage of schools that did not require masks. All three conferences are primarily in the southern region of the United States. The data was found using C2i’s data collection of IHE Football Policy.
