Interesting. I figured the students would really want it to help the college game day experience for them. College football is the second best part of college.

Hard to get excited to see the university spend money on this when the team hasn’t won squat for four seasons? I imagine the students have other ideas that they think should be addressed?

Feel this is a big part of it. Even diehard fans have a tough time going to watch them lose. 

Winning fixes everything...hopefully starting this season for program.

I found this interesting. So at least 42% of students are off campus. I don't know what the number is of students who live on campus but I guess we should hope they are all college football fans and will attend the games.

In a survey of 166 USF students, 42% said that on-campus parking makes it difficult to attend classes and events

I wonder how many would say parking at walmart makes it difficult to shop there too

Maybe they should survey the physical education department, football players, or student athletes  then it would be closer to 100% are for the OCS. 166 random students from picked departments is not a valid survey. They need to explain how they selected the only 166 students surveyed and the survey is a pretty small sample size with a  university that has over 40,000 students. I can survey 10 people here that defends Jeff Scott's extension at the time and it would tell USF Athletics it was a great move because he may turn the team around the corner.

The students might be split on the ocs but it’s clear that the oracle is firmly against it based on their reports on it over the years.  I hate the oracle.

The biggest question should be is it going to make more money and exposure for USF football.
