Since then Memphis has played in 8 bowl games, or the exact same amount as USF. We also lead the series 5-4 so you might just rethink that Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

After going to games like Memphis @ Ole Miss, Memphis @ Miss State, and even Memphis @ USM...I can honestly tell you you're wrong...there's nothing like football game day on a FBS college campus. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've been to Georgia vs. Tennessee, Georgia vs. Auburn, GT vs FSU, GT vs Clemson ... and many more. And I'm not bothered by the USF game day experience at Ray Jay. So I simply reject your assertions that game day experience is "not college football." 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm just lucky, I guess. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I mean, my sister and my brother-in-law live in Lutz and attend USF football games...they were complaining just this season how the USF vs FSU game felt more like a FSU home game, and lacked that true 'home game' feel. that said, we could sit here and argue all day and I doubt one would change the others mind. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you, your sister or brother-in-law think that FSU wouldn't have turned an OCS into "a FSU home game" you are bat **** crazy. FSU would have outnumbered USF no matter where the game was played. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Put several questions on their renewal statements. Preference - A(OCS) B(RayJay) If you chose (A) above. Additional amount per ticket - A($10) B($25) C($50) D($100).
