You HAVE to GO to the Bowl Game


Recommended Posts

Not only would I be unlikely to go to the game, I might not even be able to watch the game... This is bad scheduling on the part of the AAC and ESPN.  If it was at night, I might have been able to get a 1/2 day off and drive down in time for kickoff.

If it is the Miami game at 2:30, hopefully USF will run some buses down from the campus and back same day for those that don't want to do all that driving.  Just did it in 2 days for the basketball game down there.  I would not want to do all that in one day after drinking and watching a game.

Should take 4 hours to get back home so around 10pm. 

Maybe I can make it.

I have never missed a USF bowl game. I look forward to seeing my buddies who have also never missed a USF bowl game (a dwindling number!). We must show a good traveling crowd to be considered for big games. It is the main reason FSU agreed to another series with us... and could be the reason future home-and-home series get signed, not to mention better bowl opportunities. Don't buy on secondary markets. Suck it up and buy through USF so it counts!!

Hate quoting myself but spoke with someone from USF at the BB yesterday.  Seems they are out of the travel business.  A change in philosophy based mostly on losing money on most of the trips they have run in years gone by.

That's probably a smart fiscal move but maybe they could partner with an outside source .... busing students to the Florida bowls should be something they definitely should try to do, though

Keep in mind a lot of kids will be on winter break on the 21st. I bet there's a good number of them from Miami who will be like "USF's playing down here? Let's go". 

I wouldn't rule out seeing a lot of the kids who live in the Tampa bay area head south for a few days. Miami's easy to get to, it's a fun city for young people. We should have a good student turnout.
