1,696,795 people were in attendance for the bowl games of 2006-06. This averages out to be 53,025 per game. I don't know what the average price paid for attending would be.

Big East wins 100% of their bowl games and scores 150 points while giving up 89.

SEC wins 62.5% by scoring 257 pts and giving up 193.

ACC is tied for 3rd place with 50% wins scoring 206 pts. and giving up 199. ACC is tied with WAC, Sunbelt, PAC 10, MWC, MAC at 50% wins.

BIG TWELVE comes in with a 37.5% win status.

BIG TEN comes in with a 28.57% win status.

C-USA wins 1 and loses 4 for a 20% win status.

INDEPENDS are 0 for 2 for a 0% win status.

SEC scored the most points with 257.

BIG TWELVE was 2nd in most pts with 218.

ACC came in 3rd by scoring 206 pts.

Surprisingly, MWC had the highest ratio of pts spread with 112 for and 47 against for a 70.44% for/against.

If this hasn't bored you enough, please advise because I have even more boring stats if you like.
 
What were the attendances of the three bowls in trouble of losing their "bowlship"? They were the Car Care, Silicon Valley, and one other bowl. The Car Care Bowl may be the only one we'll see again next year.

Edit: Correction to my post - It was the Champs Sports Bowl - not the Car Care Bowl.

Also, the figures I looked at were from 2002-2003 so the bowls are no longer in jeapordy if they are still around now.

Champs Bowl: 40,168

No Silicon Valley Bowl

Not sure what the other bowls were you wanted but:

New Orleans Bowl had the lowest attendance at 24,791.

International Bowl in Toronto was second lowest at 26,717.

MPC Computers was 3rd at 28,652.

Poinsettia Bowl was next at 29,709.

All of the other bowls had over 30,000 in attendance.

On the other end of the spectrum:

The Rose had the highest at 93,852

followed by Sugar at 77,781 and

3rd was the Chic Fillet at 75,406.

Our Gator Bowl had 67,714 and placed 8th place.
 
Thanks Rome. Apparently the Silicone Valley Bowl did get axed. The third one probably got cut as well as it was 15,000 or so below the needed average.
