I swiped these numbers from another message board. A full accounting can be found here.

FINAL AVERAGE

1. SEC: 76,093
2. Big Ten: 70,551
3. Big 12: 58,935
4. PAC 12: 52,876
5. ACC: 49,198
6. AAC: 33,211
7. MWC: 25,953
8. CUSA: 21,910
9. Sun Belt: 19,323
10. MAC: 16,072

AAC

1. Louisville: 370,396 (7) = 52,914
2. Rutgers: 325,846 (7) = 46,549
3. Central Florida: 252,505 (6) = 42,084
4. South Florida: 242,941 (7) = 34,706
5. Cincinnati: 190,624 (6) = 31,771
6. Connecticut: 216,523 (7) = 30,932
7. Memphis: 199,760 (7) = 28,537
8. Houston: 145,537 (6) = 24,256
9. Temple: 134,836 (6) = 22,473
10. SMU: 107,347 (6) = 17,891

East Carolina: 263,910 (6) = 43,985
Navy: 177,940 (5) = 35,588
Tulsa: 119,356 (6) = 19,893
Tulane: 118,482 (6) = 19,747

I think the goal for the conference should be getting that average 35,000+...40,000 as extreme goal someday within next 5 to 10 years. Obviously losing rutgers and louisville will hurt that number, but I think it is feasible. Here are the goals I think each school should have.

1) ECU- 48,000
2) USF-45,000
3) UCF-44,000
4) Uconn-39,000
5) Cincy- 38,000
6) Houston- 35,000
7) Memphis 35,000
8) Navy-31,000
9) Temple- 30,000
10) SMU- 28,000
11) Tulane-28,000
12) Tulsa- 27,000

Conference Average: 35,700

3 goals:
1) Conference average above 35,000
2) No school under 25,000
3) 1 school above 50,000 (ECU,USF)

This would be a great perception to fans across the country. It would be hard to attain, but possible.

Easy goals starting next year:
1) No school under 20,000 (It's inexcusable)
2) With Rutgers and Louisville leaving, keep attendance above 30,000 for the conference

Oops, forgot Navy!

Navy: 177,940 (5) = 35,588

I saw that. I don't understand how they have that when there stadium capacity is 34,000.

Overflow. UCF had a few games over capacity. That essentially make students squeeze in together.

At what point does the Fire Marshal jump in? It's not like anyone is hiding the attandance figures, even with overflow.

We will average in the 32K range when we start to win.

We should average ~30k next year with the opening of the new stadium. Maybe more, since I think we'll sell out (or close to it) the first game, and then it'll taper from there depending on how well we do.

We were never going to have a good year in the stands this year playing all our games off campus.

I will make it pretty clear any attendance posts that turns into smack will be moved there. It has been reported and debated ad nauseum that schools report tickets handed out and not butt in seats. USF had its worst season ever so obviously we all know our stadium was empty in most games. But if that what this thread will become about they will be moved.
Get it?
Move on

Then does anyone know where we can get an updated final 2013 attendance list that is "butts in seats" as compared to "distributed"?

There is no such list because only a few schools like USF release those numbers. Those that play on campus control what gets released. So unless someone finds one with ALL schools. Selected numbers will also be moved to the smack board

How do you think attendance will look next year for temple?

It will be very interesting to see our attendance figures next year. UNC will sell out. UCF and UCONN probably will or be close to it. Tulane can go be good or bad depending on their record and how pissed ecu fans still are about this years loss. SMU will be a dud.

Seriously?

Really?

If you have a problem with FACTUAL information then maybe you should let others deal with threads in regards to your school.

I think it will be in the 25K-27K range if we're a 6-7 win team. If we beat Penn State and/or Vandy, I think we'll start averaging in the 30s.

If you want to discuss factual information from ALL schools then no problem. If you want to select one school in particular to discuss those factual numbers then my friend you have an agenda and you can do that on the smack board.

Lmao mods going over the top here. Facts aren't allowed now? I have a feeling if it weren't your school you wouldn't care. Also usf doesn't release their butt in seats numbers, the Tampa sports authority does. Finally, this isn't smack it's fact, no one else in the league inflates their numbers by 20k besides usf. That said, with a winning season they'll be back to 40k butts in seats easily.

I am sorry the world is not fair...and that MOST of our schools play in on-campus stadiums...its those that RENT off-campus stadiums that have to have their attendance verified as many of their contracts rely on actual attendance figures.

Wow...who knew you would react like this?

Again, if you have problem with USF Attendance issues, best not to reply or moderator those threads...as all the other MODS I talk to have NO PROBLEM with factual information, ANY factual information, and don't come up with pseudo rules that unless you can get info for ALL schools then NOTHING can be posted on this board.

I don't see a lot wrong with having an agenda as long as it is not violent or vulgar. Roll with the punches sometimes.

It's a message board not a court of law, quit treating it like one. I don't think it has been that bad to point out something.

Believe what you want. I have moved other attendance posts regarding SMU and a Temple. You don't like it too bad.
I know exactly what some of you want to do and there is a board for that.
