That mark "surpasses last year's sales of 10,775 and is the most" since the '00-01 season. UM students have "claimed 3,255 season tickets so far, which passes last year's total of 3,086." Last season, UM "recorded the second-highest home attendance in program history with a total of 225,079 over 18 games" -- trailing only the '85-86 season total of 259,160 (DETROIT NEWS, 8/29).
