    Nobody else used their Classic games in the overall home attendance average. It has ALWAYS been strictly home attendance. You know how high our average would've been if we had added the Magic City Classic?

    I cannot speak for our ID. They sent #s w/ the ncaa's guidelines, the ncaa approve(s/d), done deal. Perhaps other depts should follow the guidelines before them in order to complete a task rightfully for their benefit ala APR related, et al. The ncaa allows for remote sites/venues to be counted, per their guidelines/verbiage.

    The NCAA counts neutral site attendance in matchups of FCS vs. FCS teams. (something along the lines of a 2nd "home venue" rule)

    Bad numbers again for the Kats. At least the people who show up are passionate, because these teams we have had over the past 3 years have been fantastic. Maybe a new quarterback and different offensive scheme can generate excitement.

    Not bad at all, but surely in an alternate reality somewhere Harvard is at capacity the entire season.

    6,080 average (over four games) is an improvement for Colgate.

    Big South obviously has a ways to go. Wonder how much, if any, of the year over year 3k drop is associated with Liberty going FBS independent?

    Here's a breakdown of some of the data by STATS: http://www.fcs.football/cfb/story.as...ec&tm=&src=FCS

    And here's the top FCS teams and conference ranking:

    These numbers for SDSU are screwed up. The number listed for the Jacks in the top 30 has less total fans and the correct number of home games (8) while in the complete list of all FCS teams has only 7 home games listed and more fans total.

    I don't drink anymore. I don't necessarily drink any less either, though.

    The team by team section is wrong. It is listing 2016 #'s.

    Our attendance sucks compared to what it was in the late 90's, early 2000's.

    First time we didn't maker the top 30 in a while. But we are missing half our stadium. Hopefully we can get back to bigger numbers soon. Should have construction complete for start of 19 season.
    FIRE THOSE CANNONS!
