Million Fan Update

[ISUbballfan]

I have started an attendence spreadsheet. I need a little help.
For Baylor the web site has the Tx Pan American stats listed for the Grambling game.
For Colorado the web site doesn't have any attendence listed for the first exhibition
and the Rice game.

The attendence to date is:
A&M 11,335
Baylor 37,493
Colorado 15,557
Kansas 10,883
K State 79,984
Iowa State 67,621
Missouri 8,228
Nebraska 18,517
Oklahoma 26,440
Ok State 11,002
Texas 42,928
Tech 88,697

Total 415,685

Almost a sellout in Lubbock today (15,000) should help the cause.

Ok, KSU will kick in 11,753 today.

ISU, I've been compiling an attendance list spreadsheet too for Big 12 home games. We can use each other's figures to cross-check our totals, if you'd like.

Here's the home attendance I have for each team through the games of 1/11:

<PRE style="FONT-WEIGHT: normal; FONT-SIZE: 11pt; LINE-HEIGHT: normal; FONT-STYLE: normal; FONT-VARIANT: normal">---- -- ------- ----
Team G Tot Rank
---- -- ------- ----
TTU 7 82,916 1
ISU 7 61,749 2
KSU 11 76,786 3
UT 8 37,415 4
OU 4 18,408 5
BU 9 35,669 6
CU 7 16,892 7
OSU 5 10,809 8
NU 9 17,870 9
KU 7 9,677 10
MU 6 7,844 11
TAMU 8 9,587 12
-----------------------
TOTAL: 385,622
-----------------------</PRE>

I found the attendance for the Grambling State at Baylor game - the web admin had a bad link. The attendance for that game was 4,007, and the box score is at http://baylorbears.ocsn.com/sports/w-baskbl/stats/121402aaa.html

Regarding attendance for the Rice at Colorado game, I don't have a confirmed attendance, but you can infer unofficial attendance for that game by subtracting the attendance for the 5 other games CU played through 1/5 (11,828 total) from the claimed attendance from the Weekly Release found at http://www.fansonly.com/photos/schools/big12/sports/w-baskbl/auto_pdf/weekly-release.pdf

That figure is for a total home attendance for CU of 14,208 for SIX games. If you subtract 11,828 from that the figure for the Rice game is 2,380. I think I will contact the CU Athletics office to get a confirmation on that number, as I don't really trust the Big 12 office numbers on this.

YCN and ISU, great job, thanks for posting the results thus far.

Iowa State has fallen!

New Mexico is into 4th place on the national list, with ISU about 300 per game behind. 6th place Notre Dame is still about 1800 behind ISU, so 5th place is safe.
