patience grasshopper we will get there

we were ranked #2 but do not have the depth to hold on to it.

Wouldn't it be more accurate to post % of stadium full?

Very true, that is what I was thinking, below are the capacities of the BE football stadiums (large to small):

Pitt (Heinz Field) - 65,050

USF (Raymond James Stadium) - 65,000

West Virginia (Mountaineer Field) - 60,000

Syracuse (Carrier Dome) - 49,262

Louisville (Papa John's Cardinal Stadium) - 42,000 now; future expansion possible, coming to 63,600

Rutgers (Rutgers Stadium) - 42,000

UConn (Rentschler Field) - 40,000

Cincinnati (Nippert Stadium) - 35,097

Based on that, the percent capacity so far is:

1. WVU 60,650 ~101%

2. USF 53,346 ~82%

3. Rutgers 43.682 ~104%

4. Louisville 39,935 ~95%

5. Connecticut 37,906 ~95%

6. Syracuse 35,837 ~73%

7. Pitt 33,680 ~52%

8. Cincy 29,276 ~83%

its a shame that no one is supporting that Cincy team. 

[Economics_Nerd82]

They are filling 83% of their stadium. I think that's pretty good considering that we fill 82%.

I think next year for both UC and USF attendance will be much higher... they'll have a more solid season ticket base.

[BrahmanBulliever]

It's much easier to fill up 83% of a 35k facility than a 65k facility. If nothing else scarcity should becomes a more powerful factor for them than us. What is the population of Cincinatti Metro area BTW?
