Some 439,000 people went through the gates to watch six Big Ten contests this weekend. That's an average of 73,287 per game. Of course, having Michigan filling the Big House and the Buckeyes hosting (most inhospitably) the Nitty Kitties helped the numbers. But Minnesota is shoe-horning people into TCF Bank Stadium and Northwestern's homecoming even helped the 'Cats break 40,000 for the first time in 2015.
Who was there and who wasn't
I'm not sure what the Gophers are doing, but this is the third time in three home games that they have exceeded capacity.
