Attendance Predictions

I am not seeing any ticket promos to get butts in seats.

Are you surprised?

Last year at home we averaged 21,310 with a high of TCU (35,481) and a low of UAB (16,612). We only had one other game, Houston at 20,741, exceed 20K (and yes, that was in a monsoon).

Here is how I see this season:

UTEP 24,324 - opening game with high expectations and excitement
NWST ST 14,421 - I don't think free seats and Ginsu knifes would bring anyone out
UCF 17,588 - with a strong showing the previous week @ TCU, this could be higher
Tulane 18,740 - homecoming against a very poor Green Wave team
Navy 22,266 - Midshipmen bring nice contingent and we play for bowl eligibility
Rice 16,424 - we are bowl bound but an afterthought on Thanksgiving weekend

That comes to 18,960 average. Pretty low, but look at that home sched.

UTEP 26,691
NWST ST 20,083
=
23,387 avg versus the 19,372 I had through two games.

UCF operation sellout should be interesting.
