Big deal, you did it in 3 yrs, we did it in 5.  It's not that big of a difference really, you guys forced yourselves to move up when the team isn't even ready.  Not like it matters because in a few years you guys will be back in 1AA since you won't be able to have the necessary attendance at games. Here are the 2005 average attendance figures, Provisional Teams section. Made it not by much but still made it. And there are 19 teams with average attendance lower than ours and our attendance as a percentage of capacity was at 91% (with a new stadium on the way), which is higher than a lot of other teams. D1aa, keep praying. http://web1.ncaa.org/d1mfb/2005/Internet/attendance/IA_AVGATTENDANCE.pdf
