App-Montana is the only one on that list that isn't in the "marching band" category. Interesting.........

Yeah, I missed "the game." I guess I should have said something like "doesn't have playoff implications" category.

Prairie View - Grambling's crowd was so big, they filled the stadiums both home AND away !!

[T-Dog]

Take away the duplicate and I attended the 9th, 11th, 12th, 13th, 15th, 26th, 28th and 32nd highest attendend FCS game this year.

[DSUrocks07]

How about a list of highest attended games in a team's home stadium?

[Grizalltheway]

I believe 26,210 would be an all-time record for Washington-Grizzly.

[seantaylor]

Take the HBCUs off this list.

[ITmonarch10]

Take the HBCUs off this list.

Why? I think we all knew for awhile that the SWAC/Ivy drew well for certain games of the season. If you want a more accurate representation of the crowds then you should go by average. MVFC needs to step thier attendance up.

[PJ McJorma]

Colgate drew biggest crowd in LaValle Stadium history 10,000+/-; Nova (cold weather probably a factor) drew 5,000+/- for its first round playoff game

[ODUCoach]

Did ODU sell out all their games?? 5 games with exactly 20068, except for Duquense.

Yes. After the first home game this year, they somehow added some extra seats to jump the capacity from 19782 to 20068.

[BluBengal07]

Take the HBCUs off this list.

what will that prove? sleep easier?

[3rd Coast Tiger]

Because those who attend HBCU football games are aliens therefore not human and should not count.

That NDSU number is capacity. Can't get more than 19k ever. The only other consistently successful team is UNI, which also plays in a fixed dome.

So does that mean that Georgetown's constantly EXCEEDING capacity at their crappy little dump means they are better than all of the above? You continue to amaze me with your desperate need for all things NDSU to be the best no matter how many qualifiers it takes to get there.

It's playoff numbers. Come on, you can't buy that BS. Both sidelines were full, the only real empty seats were the upper endzone. There were 7,000-7,500 bodies their easily.

Of course, CCSU doesn't send its band to away games. :)

Is there a reason why 4 of those 5 games occurred in PA?

SFPA is kinda expected, very small school in a rural and remote location. I'm disapointed in seeing 2 RMU games listed, but honestly that Bucknell game must have looked like a practice in a facility that big.

[Sycamore62]

I like these numbers. I watched Indiana State at Western Illinois and they said there were 9k there. I assume they counted me 439 times to get that number.

Nope. The comment was about the MVFC. I was explaining the constraints of the MVFC's two biggest draws. The Capacity is 2500, Any amount over 2500 that they can put in the corners or on the ends would exceed that capacity. You cannot get any more people into our buildings, period.

Well, it certainly proves that people don't know what the word 'capacity' means. :)

[PAllen]

I believe that's seating capacity. There's lots of SRO when you only put up half of the bleachers xsmiley_wix. I won't even get into the fact that some of the best "seats" are outside of the stadium.

Whoa! Who moved the rock? Good to see you buddy? I was afraid you'd disappeared completely after the game last January!

Good to see ya man. I've been under a rock with hookers and blow since all the loot I made off selling NC tickets last year. :feelsgoodman:

If only the fargodome didn't have walls, and had a grass hill, and didn't have firecodes. ;)

[DJnva]

Yes. After the first home game this year, they somehow added some extra seats to jump the capacity from 19782 to 20068.

Also got a few dozen watching from the parking garage :)

And wasn't in Podunk, USA...

[NoDak 4 Ever]

Whomever you sold those tickets to got their money's worth. I had a blast!

[Twentysix]

Podunk, USA is capable of higher attendance than Missoula, Boone or Harrisonburg ;) Will we ever get there? Who knows.

[NoDak 4 Ever]

Podunk, USA also gets a hell of a lot more people than Huntsville, TX.

Yup, because Pudunk St is about the only think going on in Podunk, USA. Laughable' that you struggle to understand this...

Attendance has been up this year in Huntsvegas. I expect a good crowd on Saturday.

Racism? How about meaningful football rather than a Band competition? BTW what does the B in HBCU stand for?

Huntsvegas. Being about 1/5 the size of Podunk, USA?

[xcoach2]

Huntsvegas is a hour from Houston and a hour from your 2012 Heisman Trophy winner. Point' is there is considerably more football options on Saturday here than Podunk, USA. Plus we have the hottest ticket in the NFL right now (Texans) and Friday night lights too. I realize you can't grasp the scenario because you're podunk but you just make yourself look silly. The only things to do in Podunk, USA on a Saturday are attend a Bison game, attend a skinhead rally, do meth, etc.

So to do anything interesting, it's a 2 hr round trip drive? Otherwise you're basically in a city of 38k? I can totally see how that's attractive.

Oh shut it...FAMU didn't even have a band this year(and no bands visited) and still landed in the Top 20 in home attendance...stop clumping everybody together because you have so issues you need to work thorugh.

I live in Houston so it is a two hour (round) trip for me to Huntsville. Strange your only offense is to run attendance smack when you don't even go Bison games. You'd think that since ND has zero FBS schools and Fargo is three times larger than Huntsville that the Bison attendance would be 10 times higher than SHSU attendance...but nope, you silly podunks built a dome on top of a double-wide.

I have no issues. I don't need to identify with a race

Similar situation here the only visiting team to bring it band to SU was Alabama St. And our band did not perform at one of our home games

[WileECoyote06]

I'm not sure I understand your statement. Are you saying that nobody should have to identify with a race? Or are you implying that you're better than those who identify with a race? Or have you never been in a situation where you've identified with a race?

dammit, now I've confused myself.

Doesn't matter what race you are, I win 'em all.
