I think these ratings involve factors other than just attendance. I've never been to the Southern tailgating scene but I've heard it's really good. I did go to one game at Southern when McNeese played there in 2004. But I just went to the game and didn't go early to see the game day atmosphere.GAD_SU wrote:Southern was outside of the top 10 last season because Baton Rouge flooded two weeks before the start of the season89Hen wrote: And because they really don't have many big home games. Their big attendance numbers come from "Classics". Last year Grambling played 3 games at home.
Jackson State was #4 and its a chance the could finish #1 in 2017

Well, I believe that I must tell the truth
And say things as they really are
But if I told the truth and nothing but the truth
Could I ever be a star?

I also have to give UM more credit, WaGriz is no easy place to play. I also think MSU should have been mentioned over Franklin Field & possible over Dykehouse Stadium.

Re: FCS football: The 10 best stadiums to visit
Maybe for now. SDSU's average attendance has grown by 10k (reg season Ave 15k) since 2006. I doubt with the new stadium it's going to stay behind MSUBlackFalkin wrote:Thumper 76 wrote: I mean, it's ok

Re: FCS football: The 10 best stadiums to visit
I know that others (notably SDH) will disagree with me, but having checked out JMU's facility page, it seems that JMU lost all credibility with me when they decided in 2003 that track was no longer fit to be showcased in the stadium.
SuperHornet's Athletics Hall of Fame includes Jacksonville State kicker Ashley Martin, the first girl to score in a Division I football game. She kicked 3 PATs in a 2001 game for J-State.

That's OK, you lost all credibility here a long time ago.

I think the two National Championships they've garnished since 2003 trump you and your odd misgivings.SuperHornet wrote:I know that others (notably SDH) will disagree with me, but having checked out JMU's facility page, it seems that JMU lost all credibility with me when they decided in 2003 that track was no longer fit to be showcased in the stadium.
