  1. I must say the online process was a bit confusing where to identify mail vs. pick up. I talked to a few people that indicated they were not really sure what they indicated as the transaction flow was a bit akward when it came to the mail vs. pick up choice. Anyhow, I called the travel agent the day after I ordered to make sure I had chosen the mail option correctly. I was told my tickets were identified as "to be mailed" and I don't have them yet either.
  2. Reviewing this USF page, I am thinking that the number is undergraduate enrollment on the Tampa campus. http://usfweb2.usf.edu/infomart/eprofiles/currentprofile/eProfilesUSFSystem.htm
  3. That number is either undergraduate enrollment or Tampa campus enrollment. I'm thinking I heard in the past that recruiters use undergraduate enrollment for school size.
  4. A Navy game in San Diego? I would think they sell a whole lot more than 20,000 tickets.
  5. Agreed. I like how these 4 unfold as each week is a little bit stronger team. Couldn't have worked out better for the pre conference season.
  6. Brad - Instead of changing the message board listing from football opponents to basketball and then back, why not just list links permanently for the 15 BE schools and then just add major opponents links in another area during the season? I like to look at their boards, but know it is a lot of work for you to changeover from one sport to the next.
  7. There are too many bowls. Once fans have gone to a bowl held on around new year's, they don't want to attend the lesser bowls after that - it's just not that special anymore. There should be maybe 20 bowls max and outside of the BCS, teams should not have to travel great distances (like more than 1 time zone) so they have a shot at getting some fans there. It's ridiculous that you can finish 6th or 7th in your conference and go to a bowl game.
  8. Hopefully the other 4 home games fall that 2 are in October and 2 are in November. It would be nice to have a bit more spread out home games than what happened this year with 3 of 5 in September and 3 weeks in a row at that.
  9. Don't forget to put some dough on the Bulls while in town (BB and FB).
  10. The line has moved 1 and 1/2 points in most cases since opening. Gamers are moving their money to the Bulls. Expecting a closer game than Vegas originally thought.
  11. It will be interesting to watch the news the night that the teams arrive in Charlotte and see what the players from USF are wearing when they get off the bus at the hotel compared to what NCS are wearing. If I remember correctly from seeing other "bowl team arrivals" on the news, everyone is either wearing a suit and tie or matching school warm up gear.
  12. Yes, at the time it crossed my mind that they looked like thugs.  I actually felt a little bit embarrassed for them.  I think the older donors on level 1 were a bit taken back as it took them a while to acknowledge the players and then it was half-hearted applause.
  13. A 19-0 run will do that. Students were great today and loud even when we were down by 25.
  14. I know it's in the proper forum, but this needs to be seen by many.  Can anyone comment on the possibility of this happening (USF vs. UAB in Charlotte)? http://www.thebullspen.com/cgi-bin/yabb/YaBB.pl?board=bowl;action=display;num=1133882538
  15. Line is holding steady today at 6 - 6.5. I am totally shocked, but refuse to make easy money betting against the Bulls.

  17. And will there be instant replay this year at the bowls? During the season this was a conference rule and OOC opponents could refuse it.
  18. Makes you appreciate $7 at RJS in huge lots open for tailgating. Anybody for an OCS thread?
  19. 6,000 including season and students would be GREAT! That would surprise me.
  20. According to the bowl, these 2 watering holes are USF party headquarters. Can't they give us some love (or at least a welcome message)? Looks like Dixie's is a Steelers bar. http://www.dixiescharlotte.com/ http://www.buckheadsaloonclt.com/
  21. I wouldn't waste my time at Bulls Heaven yet. They don't have much inventory at this time, just a corner of the current store. Hopefully the offerings will change greatly when they actually move into the new, bigger space.
