Eight SEC schools averaged over 80,000 attendance last year. The lowest average percent capacity for SEC stadiums was Kentucky, at 88%. They're fine.

Now, getting fans to stay in those seats for four quarters is another matter.

paid attendance.
LSU's paid attendance for UF was 92,680. Actual? around 78K.
The paid attendance for Kent State was 89K. You really think there were 89K in Tiger Stadium at any point for the Kent State game?
