Neither Clemson or LSU failed to finish in the top 10 of football programs in the percentage of stadiums filled category. Clemson finished 11th....LSU finished 15th.

Only 2 SEC schools finished in the top 10: Georgia (6th) and Alabama (9th).

But Alabama had all them students leave at half time and all the elderly die of heat stroke in the 3rd quarter.

LSU is solely a traffic issue. Never been anywhere that is more of a shitshow than LSU's parking situation. Good problem to have if ask me.

Makes sense. We were way too busy taking up space in your dome.

Yep.. I'd definitely trade 14-0, playing for it all while basically sweeping the national awards to be top 6 in attendance %.

UGA - 92,745

LSU - 100,841

Isn't football attendance across the board down in general? Strange melt.

There may have been over 100k at the beginning of Utah State, but after half there wasn’t 10k.

It was hot as frick.

So because LSUs stadium holds 100,000+ and USF only holds 45,000 they beat us in attendance? That is laughable! I guess you can spin statistics any way you want.

Those attendance figures are interesting to me. I’ll never understand how the first game of the year doesn’t have one of the largest crowds. Almost every team in the country plays the first game of the season with optimism of a good year.

One overlooked part of the rent a win attendance figures are how many fans the opponent brings. Those small schools don’t usually bring a big crowd. The big conference, or top OOC matchups, will have thousands of fans from the opponent on hand. So while the home team may have a usual crowd, if you are playing Furman they won’t bring much more than family.

On that point, Arkansas this season has the smallest visiting crowd I’ve ever seen in Tiger Stadium for a SEC West game.

So? Attendance is now a moral victory? How sad for you.
