great numbers for everyone in the top 10. #12 not bad for Southern as a 2-4 team.

here are the single game highs:

We are having a terrible year at the gate considering how improved from last year the team is playing. What really killed us was the move of the MSU game from 6pm to a 1pm kick-off on a very warm day. :thumbdown:

Apparently ESPN is counting Liberty's 1st game as a home game and it's not. Had to borrow a 10,000 seat stadium in lynchburg because our stadium wasn't ready yet...Oh well...It is what it is.

Excuse me if this is a stupid question, but how does App St. average 147% of their stadium capacity?

Liberty did that last year. It just means you have more people than your stadium seats. For example, your stadium seats 19,200 but you have 23,000 in attendance. That's when you get numbers like that.

Consider that close to 39K of that 46K came from the 2 games at the new Williams Stadium. Yea the game at city stadium hurts these #s.

Standing room, plus the stadium capacities are often outdated or just plain wrong.

I thought Ap's capacity was now over 25K, not 20,150
It says Georgia State's seating is 28,160 (and have they really had six home games already?) so they're only counting the lower tier of the Georgia Dome?
Albany's listed at 5,000 but other sources say 10,000 if you include the hill.
Robert Morris' 7,000 is from Moon Stadium, which they haven't been in for six years now.

I'm sure there are others.

Standing room only. Seats determine capacity, Appy fills the grass hill in one endzone.

Ahhh...what a beautiful site

Chattanooga's numbers are strong as well and their season ticket sales really improved this season. Which they should, this is the best Mocs team in a decade.

Looks like Harvard will lead the Ivies in attendance, especially with The Game at home this year. Yale will lead the league next year! :nod:

The night game that Harvard has installed for its first regular season home game (against Holy Cross or Brown, depending on the year) has been a big draw. It drew over 21K this year.

It's interesting that there is clearly a large number of Jackson and NC A&T fans, but you don't really see any here or on AGS. Actually that goes for pretty much all of the SWAC/MEAC teams.

Must be at some HBCU hide-out

Also, Montana State has their best start in a million years and they still can't sell out? And they're expanding the stadium. Seriously Bozeman

Yes, there's an HBCU website, but I forget what the address is. I visited in the week leading up to the UD-DelState playoff game in 2007.

Be forewarned. You are the white devil at that site. :lol:

I'm not ashamed at all of a 95.55% capacity for the year with a terrible DII team and Drake on the schedule so far.

Well to be fair, and this goes for the average Griz fan too, but the typical Cat fan I know in Bozeman couldn't tell you the difference between Drake and James Madison or Weber State and Fort Lewis

Loving our average right now, Ranked #51 and averaging over 8100 fans a game is great for our program, glad to see attendance is up! :thumb:

A little fact i have just noticed, we are averaging more fans than:
-Cal Poly
-Weber State
-Sac State
-Idaho State
-Northern Colorado
-Portland State

We are averaging more fans then HALF of the current or future Big sky conference members, maybe this fact will help in the future with getting into the conference :twocents:.

Coming from a team who's stadium looks pretty much alike with the exception our field doesnt hurt to look at, really just once again highlights how retarded you really are. :thumb:
