Big Ten Attendance: Uhh, where'd everybody go?

Not one crowd over 100,000 - looking at you State - and a season low missed the Purdue victory.

There have been a few commenters here recently who have called for boycotts of games at Rutgers. Calls to burn game tickets in protest over the state of the football program.

There are a few (and I'd guess more now) fans at Purdue who are happy they decided to hang on to, and use, their tickets last Saturday. The smallest home crowd of the season saw the then 1-6 Boilermakers down the ill-fated Cornhuskers, 55-45. The crowds at Ross-Ade Stadium have gotten smaller as the losses have grown, averaging just 37,042, just a few ahead of Northwestern.
