An average attendance of 41,329 seems pretty high for a 1-11 team, I wonder how true that is?

I find it hard to believe WVU has a better stadium than what we will have. It's almost a carbon copy of Jack Trice.

in the end, EMAW will always win.
They factor in fanbases quite a bit. ISU fans having 53-56k for most games for a pretty mediocre team played into their rankings.

ISU fans do a great job of going to games. I've been three times and each time it's been decently loud and tons of people. I'm still confounded by their TLBPressBox.

Its not pretty, and there aren't many, but they are there.

Thats probably been the plan now for 25 years.
