On campus Publix will benefit more too. The WOB will have increased sales if the OCS.

Athletics impact on a community is an interest of mine and it is actually studied academically and published in peer review journals. The results are decidedly mixed in regards to the economic stimulus being worth the investment. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ESPN can't get enough of bowl games in Florida...no reason USF can't host the 'Busch Gardens Bowl' or something similar. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Honestly they'd probably move the St. Pete Bowl there if the stadium was large enough. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
