Spring Game Attendance Across the Country

[Mierin]

I don't think Stanford sells out any of their real games (but don't quote me) so that's not surprising.

Looks like the angst about fans not showing up because it was on TV was incorrect.

KENNY BELL SCORES A TD .... in Alabama's Spring Game.

Auburn drew 83k at their spring game Saturday so they'll take over the top spot. Alabama got 78k and Tennessee got 61k.

Auburn fans were excited to watch Auburn win its only game this season.

I'm putting this here not because attendance is important, or because the Spring Game is anything noteworthy or meaningful, but because we have nothing else to talk about.

According to SB Nation, these are the top ten attendance figures for Spring Games so far. The biggest caveat to this list (aside from the fact that it doesn't mean anything) is that Alabama, who has led the nation or been top three since Saban got there, plays this Saturday.

That said, here's the list:

Team - ATT

Nebraska - 60,174

Kentucky - 50,831

Texas - 46,000

Texas A&M - 45,212

Georgia - 45,113

Ohio State - 37,643

South Carolina - 35,218

Louisville - 33,000

Clemson - 30,000

Oklahoma - 29,200

I suppose it's better to be at or near the top of this list than at the bottom. But even Texas Fan is saying that their figure is a lie in the comments of SB Nation's article.

Interesting link. No surprise we are #1! Surprised to see Kentucky #2. Surprised OU was not higher in numbers. Clicked on the link...Michigan low numbers and Stanford was pathetic!

To be fair, it snowed during Michigan's spring game.
