High Elevations

When I listed out my favorite FBS teams, I mentioned that Wyoming's War Memorial Stadium is at the highest elevation in all of Division I at a little over 7,200 feet.  I wasn't surprised when I found out that Falcon Stadium in Colorado Springs (Air Force Academy) had the third highest elevation, 6,615 feet.  

What did surprise me was that the stadium with the 2nd highest elevation in Division is Walkup Stadium (6,900 feet) on the campus of Northern Arizona in Flagstaff.  Another surprise was that the college football stadium with the highest elevation in any division is the Mountaineer Bowl at Western State in Gunison, Colorado.  Its elevation is 7,769 feet - more than 500 feet above War Memorial Stadium.
