I got my question answered!

It's nothing we haven't discussed or already knew, but I thought I'd share my 15 seconds of fame (infamy?).

Maybe someone, somewhere will notice. Meh, who am i kidding....

Sub required.

Weeknight Football Attendance

Over on the CSNBBS website there has been a lot of upset CUSA fans about weeknight games. They are really worried about it affecting attendance. I’ll probably dig more into other years but I figured I’d share here what I found. I think these games will help us a lot based off history.

2010 (went 6-7)
Minnesota (Thur)- 25,908
Austin Peay (Sat)- 16,806
Troy (Tues)- 28,010
ULM (Sat)- 19,052
UNT (Sat)- 14,227
FAU (Sat)- 10,140



I picked 2008 because FAU wasn’t a rival or P5 for comparison.

2008 (went 5-7)
Troy (Thur)- 22,307
Maryland (Sat)- 22,605
FAU (Tues)- 25,766
ULM (Sat)- 16,150
UNT (Sat)- 14,307
