MAC raised its average by +15 this week, namely from Ohio boosting its season average from 5,498 last week to 6,419 this week (+921). Bowling Green, Ball State and NIU have each already hosted 6 home games to date. Toledo, Buffalo, and WMU have each hosted 4. Everyone else is at 5 a piece.

Ball State's numbers are off. They're averaging 3273 in MAC home games and 3021 in all home games.

I pulled the numbers for the official MAC website. If they are indeed wrong, it wouldn't be the 1st time.

Yep, those are wrong. They were at 3,314 before their two games last week and had 3,058 and 3,326 at those. They've had 19,639 for their six games. The MAC stats don't include the attendance from Friday's game.

That would also bump the MAC average up to 2,945

Here are the attendance numbers form the MAC for MAC games:

The 6 PM start time killed Akron's attendance. I expect the remaining games to draw much better.
