Pack's Spring Game Attendance 24th Highest Among BCS Schools

Good summary from the Birmingham News:

The SEC accounted for 34 percent of the spring crowds among the BCS-affiliated conferences, up from 30 percent a year ago. The SEC averaged 37,936 fans per school, a 21 percent increase from last spring and more than 55 Division I-A schools averaged in 2008 regular-season attendance.

Behind the SEC in conference average were the Big Ten (30,117), Big 12 (20,449), ACC (14,715), Big East (10,130) and Pac-10 (7,842), which again finished last among BCS conferences and dropped slightly from last year.
