Tampa doesn't have such. Logistically, it's far easier to host a college football game in Orlando than it would be Tampa. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't think a neutral site game in Ray Jay would be well received by USF brass - the Outback Bowl is okay since it's a bowl. I would cringe at UF/Miami or FSU/Miami playing in RJS.

UF just loves tilting the advantage any way it can, like having 8 home games some years and never leaving the state to play OOC. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
