Congrats to the kids that in spite of GaLoser managed to stand out.

Attendance of 5240/game ranks Albany 75th of 130 FCS teams, ahead of URI, Monmouth, Hampton and Stony Brook in the CAA

List is poppycock.  I live 20 minutes from Merrimack University and they never ever ever ever get close to the 5000 average they talk about. Maybe 1800.  They actually said they had 15,000 fans one game, a few seasons back. Fire code for the whole place is less than 4000.  North Andover would never allow it and it was determined that they combined the attendance at the hockey game, the football game, a soccer, match, and those who paid for tickets for events on campus for homecpmijg.   The campus is slightly larger than Saint Rose.

so many of these teams are reporting absolute nonsense. This year I think our school actually reported pretty close to reality.

I trust D96 on all things UA, but I have a hard time believing we averaged 5240. Maybe the first 2-3 weeks.

Well that is how averages work. They certainly had more than that first game with the berm and away side both full. more than that number for homecoming as well. Definitely less the other games

From what I saw on tv, we did.  We had three big games that helped.

I'm going off of what I saw at CCSU. They are stating 6,111 and it was probably closer to 5,250-5,500. I actually recall thinking that it was a beautiful day out and the crowd was small (this is the game I actually attended).

But anyway, doesn't change the quality of the product on the field.
