Michigan #1 again in national attendance average

Submitted by Wolverine Devotee on November 28th, 2015 at 10:51 PM

The leader in attendance in 42 of the last 44 seasons is once again back on top.

2015 average attendance top-six

Rank	Team	Avg. Attendance	Capacity
1.	Michigan	110,168	107,601
2.	Ohio State	107,244	104,944
3.	Texas A&M	103,622	102,733
4.	Alabama	101,112	101,821
5.	Tennessee	100,584	102,455
6.	Penn State	99,799	106,572

Wonder if we see another graphic in the offseason from other B1G schools on this? My bet is no.

We just need to stop being ranked #12 in the AP. Bad things have happened this year both times we've been AP #12.

Penn State can add all the seats they want...fact is they still can't fill them.

It was a joke referencing several posts saying that there was up 25% buckeye fans in attendance today.

The poster actually claimed that they were "between 25% and 35%." I thought they were more like 10-15%.

I got the joke, was going to post something along the same lines. From TV there is no way we had the numbers we had in 2013 ir 2009. As for this topic, It helped you had a much better slate of games this year. And that you were winning. And Harbaugh was all new and shiny. While he is no Hoke in season one, I expect, in a good way for you guys, he will be no Hoke in seasons 2, 3 and 4. Even in the even years when you have to go to MSU and OSU, I don't expect the decline like you had last year.

Seriously? Ok. Season failure. Might as well shut down the program. Holy moly, you guys have expectations that are a bit nuts. Competitive against MSU and outmatched against OSU -- neither a reflection of the current staff besides the fact that we are four games better than last year.

We could not win that OSU game this year. Not the way they played. Not with our personnel. The issues that led to this are resolved. Can we give the team a pass?

I was like this yesterday. But it's day 2, we're 9-3 and heading to the Citrus Bowl most likely. Would you have been happy with that prior to three shutouts?

I think this was a great season! Can't wait for our bowl game. Go Blue!
