No surprise here, except for Nebraska.

In addition to Maryland, the Big Ten placed six other teams in the top 25: Wisconsin at sixth (17,287); Indiana at seventh (17,106); Nebraska at eleventh (15,429); Michigan State at thirteenth (14,797); Iowa at nineteenth (13,835); Purdue at twentieth (13,662).
Perhaps Nebraska is the biggest surprise on the list; the Cornhuskers finished eleventh in the Big Ten win-loss standings, but fourth in attendance. Although, Tim Miles does have the campus energized about the basketball program and its promising future. (Just watch this Tim Miles clip to get a glimpse of his personality and allure.) It also helps that Nebraska built a new arena that is quite the sight, with the new arena quickly becoming a fan favorite.
The NCAA only listed the top 100 Division I programs in attendance and only one program failed to make the top-100 (I'll give you one guess). Illinois (27th), Ohio State (28th), Michigan (33rd), Minnesota (38th), Northwestern (72nd) and Penn State (73rd) all made the top 100 in home attendance and you probably guessed it, but Rutgers didn't crack the list. In case you're curious, the Scarlet Knights averaged 4,653 fans over their 18 home games, by far the worst attendance in the conference.
