He gets it.  He must have gone to a Florida Preeminent University.  The others who can't see it? Well, they went to a less academically qualified school like UCF.

Nice

I mean, we are a better draw than c.  While I want an OCS, the fact that we play in 65k seat stadium allows us to schedule games like these.  Visiting teams know that at a minimum it will be a 50/50 crowd.  If we had our own 45k place there would barely be room for the visiting teams fans.  No way would Bama travel to a stadium with only a 3-4K guaranteed allotment.  I guess that it a silver lining in the OCS debate.

Good way to look at it. USF recruits might also see us playing Bama as a positive.

This.

That being said, build the OCS and bring on the likes of Southern Mississippi and Appalachian State.

I think it's a huge silver lining for ooc games now and a positive attribute to a potential P5 suitor ....

Hold on.  The oldtimers here would probably love the occasional Southern Miss beatdown for paybacks in voting to keep us out of the CUSA.  That p.o.'d alot of people.  Probably the same people who are pissed that we didn't keep UCiF out of the AAC
