Attendance for the year was 7,294 fans per game via eight home games.

The AF2 expanded to 28 teams and changed the Pacific Conference to the National Conference. Two divisions were formed in each conference. The '''Barracudas''' were placed in the American Conference Southeast Division along with Tallahassee, Macon, Jacksonville, Augusta, Columbus and Florida, whose home city was Estero near Ft.

Another 8-8-0 season ensued and although 16 teams would qualify for the playoffs, the '''Barracudas''' were not one of them.
