Imagine a season when LSU plays all it's home games at home.
Edit: LSU had 71,599 attendance for the game in Houston vs Wisconsin, which was the largest attendance for a college football game in NRG Stadium history.

Is this purchased tickets, actual attendance at the start of the game, or actual attendance averaged throughout the game? I'm guessing those 3 rankings would look very different.

As noted in the Rant:
"They stopped using turnstile counts with the rise in premium seating. Paid is used instead of actual because suites and club seating are paid before the season.
To be fair, suites and club seating prolly have a higher attendance avg than regular seating."

I honestly didn't think I needed to be more specific than I was. I was using that 71,599 attendance to illustrate how much more LSU's total attendance figures would have been had the Tigers played Wisky in Tiger Stadium. As it was, around 70% of the crowd was LSU fans.
