We're starting to hit the meat of the 2013 spring football schedule, with another big crop of games coming up the weekend of April 20. Spring games are ultimately meaningless affairs, but they give people a chance to look at football during the offseason, so they are celebrated among the more devoted segments of college football fanbases.

Let's take a look at the attendance numbers from the early games, based on what each school has offered. These numbers are claimed attendance, so you should take them with one or more grains of salt.

Team Claimed attendance Nebraska 60174 Kentucky 50831 Texas 46000 Texas A&M 45212 Georgia 45113 Ohio State 37643 South Carolina 35218 Louisville 33000 Clemson 30000 Oklahoma 29200 Ole Miss 28000 FSU 27500 Michigan 18000 USC 15284 UNC 15000 Vanderbilt 14000 BYU 12000 Colorado 10244 Boise State 9146 Maryland 8200 Purdue 6427 Arizona State 6300 Cal 5831 Louisiana Tech 5700 Duke 5213 Texas State 4608 USF 4606 Stanford 4350 Arizona 4095 Pitt 3642 Baylor 3500 UTEP 2581 UTSA 2506 South Alabama 2281 Illinois 2100 Cincinnati 2000 UNLV 1200 Tulsa 1200
