Buffalo with 4 crowds of >20K already...impressive....they could be in the running for the best avg attendance by year's end.

Us MAC West teams (besides Toledo) have been getting screwed out of nice weather home games!

For real. NIU's first home game was played under swamplike conditions and now the 2nd home game is tomorrow in which the weather is supposed to be in the upper 40's with huge winds that will make it feel like it's in the 30's

It's hard to remember them all when you've already had 4 home games. WMU, EMU, and NIU have only had one so far and it's already October.
Horrible horrible scheduling.

Tomorrow's expected high in Chicago (46 degrees),may break the record for lowest high reading ever on that date.

It'll be tough to keep that going for 3 more games unless we start winning..

Quote:The current east side bleachers were constructed after the 2002 season and were completed in time for the 2003 season opener. The configuration slightly altered the stadium's seating capacity reducing it from 30,520 to 29,287 before the latest renovations reduced capacity to the current figure of 25,319.
RE: MAC Avg Home Attendance (through Week 5) - exCincy Kid1 - 10-05-2014 12:19 AM
Miami's capacity down to 24.2K after the last round of renovations...took out south end zone bleachers (in favor of Cradle of Coaches Plaza) and built new, smaller endzone seats in north endzone where there were bleachers as well. New East (student) side is actually larger than the previous side 45 rows vs. only 30 rows), so the overall effect actually makes the stadium look bigger even though it's smaller in capacity. when they finish the IPF then the focus will be on suites...not much of an impact to capacity, thought. All very elemental because until Miami starts winning, we don't need more seats, just people in them.
RE: MAC Avg Home Attendance (through Week 5) - HuskieJohn - 10-05-2014 10:27 AM
NIU's capacity is currently 23,595 (using last seasons 2 sellouts as references)
