    Still a lot more available now than there were two weeks ago. Over a full section's worth additional.

    Yeah, like I said in the fatigue thread attendance is always down in the quarters compared to the 2nd round. Last year it was 600 less and in 2017 it was just over 1000 less. 15,000 is probably about the best we'll see this week.

    I want to see what everybody's attendance is as a percentage of capacity. 15k is still in the mid 90's nobody else cracked 75 IIRC.
    ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

    I posted it on AGS as percentage of their regular season average and NDSU was easily the highest last week.

    Nicholls/NDSU: 15,690 (86.3% of their regular season attendance average of 18,177)
    SLU/Montana: 16,550 (70.3% of their regular season attendance average of 23,544)
    Albany/Montana St: 12,947 (69.8% of their regular season attendance average of 18,547)
    KSU/Weber St: 5,422 (68.2% of their regular season attendance average of 7,944)
    Illinois St/UCA: 5,127 (60.3% of their regular season attendance average of 8,505)
    Monmouth/JMU: 10,881 (49.1% of their regular season attendance avereage of 22,144)
    APSU/Sac St: 5,140 (43.1% of their regular season attendance average of 11,919)
    UNI/SDSU: 4,102 (34.3% of their regular season attendance average of 11,952)

    15,000 is 80% of 18,700.

    And I'd guess that Professor's numbers are paid attendance, not actual. I'm pretty sure NDSU did not average 18,177 butts in seats this year.

    So while my math is off, it appears we're doing OK relatively speaking.
    ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

    I put a 6 instead of an 8 into my equation.

    Those were the official attendance figures reported to the NCAA in the regular season but you're right that's probably paid attendance not turnstile count which is what the playoff attendance seems to be reported as. But every school does that attendance inflation in the regular season so it's pretty clear that NDSU is still more immune to whatever playoff attendance decline there may be than other schools are.
