Looking to brainstorm...

#1- Move game to 730pm.....DONE

#2- Perhaps reach out to Buc fans?  After this Thursday they do not have a home game, for 24 days.   Perhaps get a team of 10-20 diehard bull fans to walk the tailgates this Thursday before the Pats game with $10 tickets for homecoming (Yes I will volunteer, who is with me?)

#3- Reach out to Rays fans?  They have a few months off..

#4- Crap Lightning are at home 7pm, same night.

The secondary ticket market seems to have this game marked up because of homecoming.  I usually pay about $20 for the same area every game.  That area is now $30.  This might affect casual fans looking to pick up tickets who aren't concerned about Homecoming.

I like idea #2 and I wouldn't mind volunteering. Talk to the USF ticket office on this?

The discounted food/beer is a great idea but ... alas... TSA/Glazers.

Giveaways are generally a good idea. 

More advertising

Just looked on Ticketmaster and in my section (123) I see about 4 tickets available. I wanted to get 3 more right next to mine or close by. Does anyone know if USF has more available if I call them? The seats next to mine have been open all year.

They should be advertising this like crazy! A full day of homecoming festivities, tailgating etc...then of course the game. We plan on smoking ribs and tailgating from 12pm on

Call your ticket rep and if they're available, they should be able to sell them to you.  I did that all last year as they were never shown on sale at ticketmaster.  USF seems to hold a lot of tickets in the hopes that someone will buy mini packages, late season tickets or group sales?

Giveaways should be something. Get a sponsor for 40k Rocky bobbleheads or a Matt Grothe figurine.
