That can't be right, Texas A&M has a very large park (Biggest in the B12) and even though their team is way down right now, I have a hard time believing that their attendance is less than the Irish. However this year the Irish have broken all records, no small part due to the presence of Jeff "The Shark" Samardizja. That guy has become a sort of cult hero as Charlie said! Terry
ND's capacity for baseball is around 3,000, which makes the average attendance of the top programs extremely impressive. Of course, being in the south helps. The ND game we went to this past spring was in weather you would not see in SEC country.
I think that list only gives attendance for teams that are ranked. The Aggies certainly don't fall in that category this year! A&M's current attendance average even with the putrid season is still pretty good. 4395
