Lsu averages ~2K more than we do, sure, but they have a lot more students and are located in way larger metro area.
    To put it another way...LSU's average attendance is 36% of their enrollment. Miss. State's average attendance is 41% of our enrollment. And we live in a state where there are 2 P5 & 2 SEC teams, whereas LSU is the only of both.

    LSU averaged 2655 more per game than we did. Wouldn't surprise me if it was actually less, given how many we get in the LFL.

    There is no way LSU is more passionate about their baseball team than we are. They are passionate about winning championships, and baseball has brought them plenty of that. But if the roles were reversed, and we were the ones with those championships, and they not, I doubt they'd average as much as we do now.

    PF is a moron.
