Don't lead in attendance (Miss St. does).

We lead in sold tickets.

26 times in the past 30 seasons (1996-2025). Which is surprising bc Miss State capacity has been 15k since 2019

Based on what? Where is the extensive research you have done?

No school releases actual attendance anymore. LSU was one of the last schools to stop doing that, if I recall correctly. Every school with a large seating capacity has the same or worse issues as LSU.

They can, without a doubt. Wouldn't be surprised if they had the highest average attendance this season.

Idk but this graphic is pretty insane. Mississippi State has the entire Top 25 NCAA on-campus attendance record games.

and us not leading in 2021 really shouldn't count because we were under COVID restrictions until late in the season. I also have no idea where we ranked in 2020 when the season was cancelled early

they have the biggest stadium by a good bit. If we had the ability to back up trailers and temp seating in the outfield like they could for decades, this graphic would look a lot different.

& yet they only have been at full capacity 3 times. (Fact check for 2026?)

Once since their expansion to 15k

If a graphic like that existed for football, it'd be nothing but maize and blue. If the graphic was for men's basketball, it'd be Syracuse orange.

Purely a function of having the largest capacity.
