Attendance has been a little different this year with home games. Typically, there are average crowds for most games. The Lipscomb game is usually around 5k and the games between final exams and Christmas are less than 1,000.

This year, the Lipscomb game only had 3,100, but the two after exam games had better than average attendance, even without the students. At this point last year, we averaged a little over 1,500 per game. This year, we are averaging 2,382.

I though they had a pretty good crowd considering the students were gone vs. South Dakota St.

The OVC has got to bring Lipscomb in. The thoughts of having three Nashville schools, and two within an hour are huge. Going to 14 in basketball with Lipscomb and someone else would be huge.
It will eventually drive up attendance for ya'll.
The Blvd. games shouldn't be played until January/February as well.

I agree, but I think TN state will jump ship to another conference soon.

at least bu women are hosting lu on feb 11

Agreed as well about the blvd games, pre conf is tough. TSU is deciding about the SWAC this year, and there is an expectation that jax st will move to an fbs conference. LIp and ETSU make sense at that point.
