Do we sell out Ray Jay with mainly Bulls fans before getting an OCS?

And we had over 49,000 for Game One in 1997, was hoping that showed potential. 

Next game was under 34,000, then just over 30,000 . . . averaged just over 33,000 for Year One.

1998 we averaged 27,000

1999 we averaged 25,000

2019 we averaged 32,000

Those aren't bad numbers for D1-AA and then the G5

No, that does not mean that. We are working with the Foundation on the fund for the stadium, operations buidling, etc. More information will coming.

https://youtu.be/d2mEz8vuOkE?t=2306 CSU had 32k fans at their week 1 game in their 40k stadium and it looked pretty full and respectable on TV.  Here's us vs BYU with 35k fans a couple years

It's not the stadium... this team would not sell out an OCS either.

When Cincy did their upgrade they attached classrooms in order to tap state funding. Nothing wrong at all with that strategy. 

Glad they did. Used the bathrooms in that building.

My son and I stopped at a couple of schools up north a couple of summers ago and they were like this.   Bucknell was one.  Stadium was wide open for people to enjoy

UF does this with the Swamp which REALLY surprises me given all possible variables involved. 
Anyone can come in an out during the week and run stadiums or chill out in the stands. 
Couldn’t believe it when I came to visit the first time.

And addressing OP,

it would have to be something crazy like College Gameday coming to Tampa or something. 
Seeing how the best possible teams to draw that spectacle or interest have left us, then it would literary have to be either an undefeated and highly ranked SMU or Memphis coming to town midway through the season to face an undefeated and ranked USF. 
 

In other words,

nah it’s impossible. 
Where’s that OCS at?

Didn't know that.  We walked in there one time to use the restrooms after leaving a basketball game

When I worked at UF we would also hold meetings and stuff in the swamp. It’s interesting how multipurpose that stadium is

Yep remember going to the college visit with my oldest and it was wide open, she loved it but liked Texas A&M more and went there for in state tuition which was more expensive then UF (Fl prepaid) even with 3 flights a year. Glad she is only 3 hrs away and love the vibe in college station but UF is a very good school  and great atmosphere as well.

When the football team was good we could get over 50k to RayJay. 
 

I was a freshman in 2007. I am sad for the current students who don’t get to experience what I did. I camped overnight in front of the sun dome with hundreds of other students for WVU tickets. One of my best memories, along with that game, and many other packed games. 
 

Build an on campus stadium. Make it 40k, some scarcity might help. When we win it will sell out.
