14 teams, 18 games each, divided by 2 = 126 games plus 13 games in the B1G tourney, so call it 6,800 a game. Not bad at all.

Ah, so it was all games hosted by B1G teams, not just B1G conference games.

RU had average attendance of 2,409 last season, up about 45% from 1,649 in 2013-14.

If we can win some of those big game and get pass the second round our attendance will go up. It will be nice to average 4000.
