I know this is year-old data, but I would imagine attendance went up again this year, if not quite as dramatically.

2011 and 2012 Attendance Numbers

I also read an interesting article today. It's a fan article, and I was wondering if anyone else had heard anything about this clause in Franklin's contract:

Coach Franklin’s contract is for approximately 3.5 million a year which makes him the fifth highest paid coach in the SEC just behind Nick Saban, Kevin Sumlin, Les Miles, and Steve Spurrier. According to a source in the athletic department there is no buy out clause. But the way the contract is written the turf on the football field that was put down two years ago and the new 31 million dollar indoor practice facility is tied to Coach Franklin and his contract. And if he leaves whichever school wants our coach has to pay off the upgrades that Franklin asked for and received.

It comes from this article.
