Watched the kickoff and first ECU drive....saw a good number of empty seats..MAC isn't the only conf with attendance issues at weeknight TV games
ECU ranked in top 20..exciting offense....yet not a sellout

Comphers fault

Cutlers fault

Carey's fault.

Barksdale's fault.

How was their hot dog supply?

Did their cannon run out of shells in the 2nd half?

Thanks Obama.

The wiener takes it all.

I blame chaz

Drew Hare's fault.

East Carolina attendance last night 40,152.
Weekday game didn't seem to hurt them much. And UCONN is
no great attraction anymore.

That's pretty good attendance. I wonder if it was as cold as BSU or WMU games last year, what their attendance would be.

They average 46-47k per game for a school from the AAC so I am sure that they would be okay...

Friday night is not really a week night

For football attendance, it kind of is. People still work Friday so they have to get from there to Huskie stadium - if the game starts at 6 pm, good luck with that.

Let the whining about weeknight games begin. NIUs last Saturday game is tomorrow.

Was attendance actual butts in the seats or phantom attendance numbers like some MAC schools provide? ie companies buying up tickets

My point had nothing to do with total attendance but with filling the stadium regardless of capacity....Some Power 5 schools are concerned with attendance reductions particularly with students

Ps
I think a Sat afternoon game would have filled that stadium....
