Fans throughout the SEC showed out in a big way in Week 10, as five of the seven games around the conference drew crowds that reached at least 94 percent of that stadium’s capacity.

Florida and Georgia met in the annual World’s Largest Outdoor Cocktail Party at EverBank Field in Jacksonville, Florida, home of the NFL’s Jacksonville Jaguars. The stadium normally holds just 67,000 fans, but it was expanded out to 84,000 seats for one of the SEC’s largest rivalry games. Fans of the Dawgs and the Gators couldn’t quite reach capacity in Jacksonville, but they came close, drawing more than 83,000 fans to the game.

Three SEC games actually exceeded a stadium’s capacity, two of which occurred in the state of Mississippi. Ole Miss played host to Auburn in a critical elimination game in the SEC West, and although Ole Miss fell short, it wasn’t due to the lack of a raucous atmosphere in Oxford. The Rebels’ Vaught-Hemingway Stadium exceeded 102 percent capacity Saturday night, drawing more than 62,000 fans to a stadium that normally holds fewer than 61,000.

In Starkville, Mississippi, the Mississippi State Bulldogs played host to Arkansas, and the Bulldogs hit 103 percent of Davis Wade Stadium’s capacity for their 17-10 win over the Hogs. MSU attracted more than 63,000 fans, one of its largest crowds of the season.

The other stadium to exceed its capacity was South Carolina’s Williams Brice Stadium, as Gamecocks fans piled in hoping to watch their team exact revenge on the Tennessee Volunteers for last year’s crushing defeat. Tennessee beat South Carolina for the second year in a row, but the Gamecocks still drew nearly 82,000 fans to the game despite the chilly weather throughout the Southeast.

Vanderbilt’s home date with Old Dominion drew the smallest crowd of the weekend, both in terms of number of fans and percent capacity. The Commodores attracted fewer than 29,000 fans and only reached 71 percent capacity for their final non-conference game of the season.

Missouri also drew a small crowd, reaching just 87 percent capacity inside Memorial Stadium for a showdown with SEC East foe Kentucky. The 62,000 fans that attended the game marked the second-smallest crowd of the weekend ahead of only Vandy.

Texas A&M attracted more than 100,000 fans for its game against Louisiana-Monroe, and those fans spent most of the afternoon biting their fingernails as A&M flirted with disaster into the final minutes of the game.
