TCF crowds for 2015 season.
We are one season removed from selling TCF out six times.
Interest and support for Gopher football is out there.
Are suggesting the stadium wasn't as full as the numbers indicate? It was.Would be interesting to see scanned ticket numbers. I know they are available, the guys over at GPL do a summary at the end of each hockey season.

Of course, we had Nebraska and Wisconsin on the schedule, with many of those fans buying two or three packs, whichever they sold that year. And it was just the first year of higher prices, coming off the Citrus Bowl. But the stadium was pretty much full most games. The Illinois game might be the only exception.

Yep. Great schedule.Michigan and TCU helped as well
I give swingman credit. Different than his usual posts where he basically just lists the eligibility of each of our players

Attendance for the 2017 home campaign will all come down to two things: how the team is performing and weather.
Early season games vs. Buffalo, Middle Tennessee and Maryland are very unlikely to break 50,000 without nice weather and a 2-0 or 3-0 start.
Towards the middle of the schedule we get Michigan State and Illinois at home, the latter for Homecoming at 2:30 PM. With a a 5-0 or 4-1 start the Illinois/Homecoming game should be a sellout. And I think Michigan State quickly trends towards a sellout if we enter the game at 4-0 and it gets bumped to a 2:30 kickoff.
Towards the end of the season the Nebraska game will likely sellout with the help of the Huskers' fans. Northwestern in November is always a tough sell for casual fans, so without a strong record attendance will likely be sparse. And finally Wisconsin should sellout if a division title is on the line, or if the weather is nice and we are still competitive (7-4 or better).

Pretty sure jNW is a road game this year, and I have a hard time believing our record will influence the attendance of the Buffalo game. I agree with your overall point, though.
