I’ll be honest, and this is coming from someone who has only missed 1 home game this year. I personally believe the lack of attendance has a lot to do with the games being available for free on ragincajuns.com, coupled with the fact that the competition has been so weak. I enjoy us whipping everyone, but some people want to attend a game that is expected to be competitive.
Exactly, so if being mediocre or 26-4 doesn’t make a difference in attendance then it would be wise to look at other things. If a season this special makes attendance stagnant then it’s actually getting worse and will show when we come back down to earth. I understand the thought process of not opening the top, i just think it has had a negative impact on attendance that may not be seen on the bottom line but only in actual butts in the seats. It’s quite possible the university is perfectly ok with that.
It's a must see game.

We're averaging in the neighborhood of twice as much as the next best team.
Sad thing is, we can do better.
I don’t compare our attendance to the SBC. I compare it to CUSA. We are better than all the Deep South teams in that league other than UTEP. They probably are more of a western team than southern team and they don’t have a history of success in the diamond sports. Point is the change is not just here. It is everywhere in the Deep South. Note MT and WKU may not qualify as teams in the Deep South. Last time I checked those two teams were slightly above our level. Weather definitely affects WKU as far as baseball is concerned.
I purposely left BR Thursday after work, went to basketball game, stayed in hotel just to support the team, bc I knew I'd be in Houston. I wanted to support the team at home one more time. I'll be in NOLA next weekend. I'm taking Friday off to be at the 11:30 game.
6002. What do I win?
