Not to make a big deal out of this, but I see the BG/UW game on our website stats has the game listed as a neutral site (which it was for both teams), but the 30,307 in attendance is also listed as a "neutral" attendance figure. I'm guessing it's reflected this the way because it needed to be entered into the automated scorebook as such, but with this being a "home" game for BG, I sure hope this figure is accounted for as a BG home game attendance figure when reporting the attendance to the NCAA (especially after the notice letter that BG received).

Yeah, it should, I was just pointing out that since it counts towards our "home" attendance then it should be adjusted in our own stats. Right now we don't have an average home attendance, we have an average of 30,307 for neutral site attedance. This is something we'll have to adjust in our own stats through the automated scorebook. BG will just needs to make a schedule note in one of the files and count the game as a home contest to have this reflected in the home attedance.Schadenfreude wrote:It counts with the NCAA. No question about it.
Arkansas did this with its stats last year (2005) because they played a couple games in Little Rock. In past years they didn't do it for all their games in Little Rock and it was counted as neutral, but when they made a schedule note last year (they used a "+" for at Little Rock) they had it add up and count for home attendance.
