Still can't figure the Memphis attendance. The LB seemed full. I didn't see any empty seats.

Wow. USF out did Cincy, USF, and Memphis? I thought those 3 were supposed to be sold out capacity crowds? Was Cincy at capacity?

Great numbers and looked good on tv
Would have thought there were 50k+ on hand in Memphis

There were easily 15k Wisconsin fans at USF.
UCF holds 45 and UC holds 40. Both were really good crowds.

Well done Huskies, all things considered. And butts in seats were very close to that 19K number.
Did school not start yet for Tulane?

Appearances can deceive, but it looked and felt like a bigger crowd than 44k from my vantage point.

Minor, but UCF is now at just over 44k due to expansion of premium seating.
44,206 is the most recent updated capacity.
What is the LB capacity? I agree from my limited time watching the game, the LB looked decently full.

Tulane number surprises me. Would've thought they could get a better crowd after a good year and bowl victory last season. FIU was an 8 win team last year too.

Probably more like 9-10K Badger fans.
Student section: 10K
Season Tix: 17K
USF Single Game purchase: 3-4K
I am estimating ~ 44-45K actual butts in seats
Note: that we probably could have gotten another 1-2K if game was played on Saturday and we didn't have a Cat 5 hurricane bearing down on the East Coast of Florida, which kept a good number home for storm prep.
Overall it was great crowd....just #$@# pissed off that the team laid an egg. Still not sure how you come out flat with a near sold out crowd, against a ranked opponent on national TV...and all the preseason hype.
It is not easy being Green....

There were a lot of empty seats on the visitors side up top. No shame in it. Most Memphis fans sit on the other side because of the heat and Ole Miss apparently sent some tickets back.
The real question......can we count USF? It was majority Wisconsin fans.

I will take 99% of capacity (44K) vs. an FCS opponent on a Thursday night every year.

Obviously he was joking about the 40k but there was easily the same amount of Wisconsin fans as USF.
