2009 College Football Attendance – Week 14

December 8, 2009

Here are the top 5 stadium attendance figures from college football this past weekend (home team listed first):

1)  USC vs. Arizona:  L, 21-17  (83,753)

2)  Texas vs. Nebraska:  W, 13-12  (76,211)

3)  Florida vs. Alabama:  L, 32-13  (75,514)

4)  Pittsburgh vs. Cincinnati:  L, 45-44  (63,387)

5)  Washington vs. California:  W, 42-10  (62,334)

If I missed something let me know.  This week was probably the worst attendance week of the year as far as the top five largest crowds go, as there weren’t many games on the schedule due to it being so late in the year (although I would have loved to have had tickets to any of these football games).  A couple notes on these games:  1) The Texas/Nebraska game was at Cowboys Stadium in Arlington rather than in Austin; 2) the Florida/Alabama game was in the Georgia Dome in Atlanta rather than in Gainesville.  Over the coming weeks I’ll do some attendance analysis from the regular season (biggest crowd of the season, best overall attendance, etc.), and also give an update on the bowl game attendance.

Since all the home teams basically put up a poor performance except for Washington (and they wouldn’t even be up here if there wasn’t so few games on the schedule), I’m not giving love to any of these teams.  What I will do is inform everyone of an opportunity to see Jenn Brown on ESPN U tomorrow night @ 7pm ET (can’t forget about my man Drubner!).  If you aren’t a fan of Jenn Brown I apologize for all the pub I’ve given her lately, but the top two search queries that have led people to my site the past couple weeks are “Jenn Brown” and “Jenn Brown ESPN”, so I’ve got to keep feeding my visitors!  If the show is as cool as the videos I posted yesterday, we are in for a good treat!

2009 College Football Attendance – Week 13

November 30, 2009

Here are the top 5 stadium attendance figures from college football this past weekend (home team listed first):

1)  LSU vs. Arkansas:  W, 33-30  (93,013)

2)  Florida vs. Florida State:  W, 37-10  (90,907)

3)  Auburn vs. Alabama:  L, 26-21  (87,451)

4)  USC vs. UCLA:  W, 28-7  (85,713)

5)  Oklahoma vs. Oklahoma State:  W, 27-0  (85,606)

If I missed something let me know.  This week snapped the seven-week streak of Big Ten teams topping the list.  However, the only Big Ten team in action this week was Illinois (and they were on the road), so maybe they should get a free pass.  Look at the rivalry games on this list…I would have loved to have been at any of them.  This week we honor Louisiana State University for being the top attended team…is this a sticker or do companies actually make them like this now??!!

2009 College Football Attendance – Week 12

November 23, 2009

Here are the top 5 stadium attendance figures from college football this past weekend (home team listed first):

1)  Michigan vs. Ohio State:  L, 21-10  (110,922)

2)  Texas vs. Kansas:  W, 51-20  (101,357)

If I missed something let me know.  This is the seventh week in a row that a Big Ten team has been first on the list.  I typically honor the top team in attendance with a picture unless they lose.  This picture of Ohio State fans praising Michigan’s coach will have to do:

"Hey Coach Rodriguez, We Love You"
