  1. It doesn't matter now, just as it didn't matter then. Remember when the big easts WVU beat an amazing ACC champ clemson like 70-17? Or when UL went to their bowls and sweeped up SEC competition... There was a year the big east was like 7-1 in bowls. That get us recognition? NOPE Just got our teams cherrypicked. I say we TAKE CARE OF BUSINESS in our own shed and worry about "conference reputation" later. JUST WIN JIM err...TJ? GO BULLS!!!
  2. If any of you have never had REAL southern food or want to have some on this trip, go to Irondale Cafe. Many friends of mine who were born and raised in Birmingham and Alabama in general SWEAR by it. As do I...I've been 3/4 times. Lol It's incredible. All the southern delicacies you can get your hands on. For an incredibly reasonable price. Irondale Cafe http://www.irondalecafe.com 1906 1st Ave N, Irondale, AL 35210 Its just outside side the city limits, but well worth the short drive. Before the game, or the day before or after for lunch or maybe dinner. It's only open from 11am-2:30pm most days, and sometimes from 5-7. It's also the home of the "original fried green tomatoes" #GoBulls
  3. I was also at the ND game and there seemed like a LOT more than 2K or even 5K there. WAY more than even the Meineke Bowl or Miami Beach Bowl last season(which was 5K Bulls fans). Obviously, I do not, but you can't say that they were 2,000 or less. FSU was clearly 13k or more, and Notre Dame was 5k or more based on eye test alone(you could tell where the USF fans were cause all the ND fans left by the end), and Auburn was maybe around 5K including our 380 member band that year. So yeah, were my numbers inflated? Maybe. Not for fsu '09 though. GO BULLS!!!
  4. very possible...we've been close before, and judging from his work at fgcU, he'll be a star here at Corbett Stadium! #GoBulls
  5. OK...so last year I believe our Miami Beach Bowl attendance was around 5-6K judging from a Times article around the date of the bowl saying we had reached that level. A couple of questions, since this Bowl is twice as far away as Miami, though we had a better season, have the 2nd best offense in the country, AND just hired charlie stong, do we think we will get more than 5K tickets sold? Do we expect a good showing? What are we happy with? I've seen a lot of members on this board just buying tickets, but not actually attending. I haven't bought my tix yet, but I'm just buying two. How many other Bulls will be there?! Where are we on our allotment? What's our allotment? I can't help but think back to the Big East days again, when we could roll up to @Auburn, @FSU in Tally or @Notre Dame in South Bend with 10-13k for a regular season game. What are we expecting folks? I'm hoping for 10k...hope I'm not far off. :/ Thanks! #GoBulls
  6. DING DING DING!!! THIS ONE!!! Make it 45k and call it a day... Perfect. #GoBulls
  7. Great idea but wouldnt work in Florida. Im no architect, or geologist, but it rains a WHOLE lot more in Tampa florida than it does in palo alto. And you cant dig more than two/three feet into the ground in swampy florida without hitting water. So yeah...no underground. GO BULLS!!!
  8. Did someone say...War Flamingo?!?! and Rocky the Brahman?
  9. Exactly...this^^^ Im guessing something like what they have at East Carolina. Maybe a Semi-Closed Bowl, with one side having am upper level, with Seating Capacity of around 45-50k. Im thinking back to our big east years and remembering, didnt we average around 44k for games back then. Basically a sell out of RayJay's lower bowl? If we can somehow coincide a move to the Big12 or another power5 conference with an OCS, and play better competition(and keep winning) averaging 45-50k shouldnt be an issue. my $0.02. GO BULLS!!!
  10. So question? Anyone know where HOT band will be? Hope I'm sitting next to them. Any input would help, got to be next to them at Marlins Park bowl last year and it was awesome. Go Bulls!!!
  11. If you guys wouldn't mind pitch'n in on gas(i drive a prius so its cheap), I could give you a ride up. I could only take you there though, not back. :/ Let me know, PM me. Also, you in Tampa? GO BULLS!!!
  12. I'm driving from Miami, stopping through orlando. Not coming back, continuing up north back to NYC after the Bowl. It'll cost me a few tanks of gas. So, $80 or less. This is honestly the best idea. Road tripping it is the BEST way. Rent a car put up your BULLS FLAGS and ROAD TRIP. lol GO BULLS!!!
  13. Ya gotta KEEP YOUR COMPOSURE!!! GO BULLS!!!
  14. Seriously ^^^THIS If I remember correctly, didn't Willie "let flowers go" during the Syracuse game last year? As sort of a last ditch effort to save his job and our season. lol Meaning, didn't slick Willie put more of the responsibilities and "play calling" in our talented players hands, and then mold what they wanted to do around that going forward? We'll be fine. If D holds up, we win big! GO BULLS!!!
  15. I as well, am ok with this guy. GO BULLS!!!
  16. This thread is Bye Bye...QF aint goin nowhere! GO BULLS!!!
  17. Sorry...I was late to the city comparisons. I was too busy having my eyes glued to twitter! GO BULLS!!!
  18. This message board has gone off the rails...I can't tell if we're HAPPY or SAD at this whole situation lmao. GO BULLS!!!
  19. Austin's a great city and honestly one of the best in texas. Very progressive with an incredible restaurant and food truck culture. Kinda booming right now though...past fewtimes i've passed through on business ive noticed new high rise aprtments and other building and such. Place is blowing up with real estate and commerce. I would imagine the traffic is just getting worse and worse...i remember it was always pretty rough. Because, like florida, texas doesnt believe in REAL public transportation. Light rail, trains, REAL bus systems. just my two cents... GO BULLS!!!
  20. Kind of agree...but maybe Dungy sees something we dont see? Maybe he thought (after Strong got fired) a little recommendation to Oregon was necessary to get taggart on Oregons radar/out of here, and thus to open the doors for Strong to be in tampa. Srsly. This is kind of an interesting turn of events and the timing couldnt be more precarious/coincidental. Im not really a conspiracy theorist-type...but this looks like one if I've ever seen one! GO BULLS!!!
