You can have a very good debate on the relative strengths of C-USA and the MAC when it comes to performance on the field, but when it comes to attendance, C-USA is much, much better than the MAC, no matter how you slice it. Now, with Memphis leaving, they lose their #1 hoops attendance leader (and no one else is even close to Memphis over there or here for that matter), and they are losing some very good football attendance programs like UCF and Houston to a lesser degree. So, they are dropping down closer to the MAC and Sunbelt, but our best home attendance programs in football would still be middle of the pack in C-USA.

Middle of the pack = average in CUSA.

In other words a MAC schools in a similar type of community as most CUSA schools draw like most CUSA schools... No we don't have an ECU in the conference but Southern Miss?

A ranked CUSA team that drew *gasp* 28400 per game... A whopping 6K more than Toledo un ranked team with no Conference or division championship.

Also bear in mind week night or not the weather up north hurts the MAC late in the season..

That's not trying to 'slice' anything its just a fact.

Many of the schools that *really* struggle are in or very near professional sports markets (as in occupy the same metro area).
