There are no attendance numbers for Illinois, Maryland or Northwestern.
The Big Ten totaled 410,942 fans this spring, not counting whatever number of fans Illinois, Maryland or Northwestern attracted.
Final spring game attendance numbers, for whatever it is worth:
1. @B1GFootball – 410,943
2. @SEC – 408,566No other conference comes close

The SEC number was limited with Texas A&M not holding a spring game for a second straight season due to renovations at Kyle Field. Expect the Aggies to be a popular spring draw starting nect year, which should help the SEC push past the Big Ten if these numbers are close to the same next year. In the SEC, only Texas A&M and Kentucky did not record a spring game attendance.
