It was a record-setting day for Michigan, but the record-setting took place at the field, rather than on it.
The Wolverines cruised to an easy victory against Colorado State, and a record number of people were there to watch.

Michigan fans are nothing but loyal, and in 2021, the Wolverines averaged 108,763 fans at their seven home games, good enough for the No. 1 rank.
According to Michigan Athletics, more than 100,000 people have attended every non-pandemic home game since 1975. That’s quite a feat when the average game attendance for a college football game is 38,775 fans.
The Big House, Michigan’s Stadium, has been host to many notable moments in college football. If history is anything to go by, a record number of fans will be watching for the next moment.
