September 2016 noon game vs FSU was the hottest game in my recent memory. For FSU it was worth it, for some of these new conference mates, not so much. Shade for the home side should be a requirement.

The BOG is the last step in the process. I believe their vote is a formality since we are not asking for State money in order to build the OCS. I would say the vibe around athletics is

That was a rush to the club to ride it out in the 2nd QTR.

Yep.  Too many FSU shirts up in the club that day.  Not a big fan of these games that feel like home games for the bad guys.

That should hopefully lessen when the OCS is built and our fans hold more value to their tickets in our own stadium.

Yes.  Exactly.  BTW:  @John Lewis, I have been hearing 35,000 seats, which is fine...do you know if that means 35,000 total fans (including students) or do you think it means 35,000 seats PLUS a berm or standing area for more students?

I agree completely. I feel like the amount of away families will greatly diminish.

I believe that to mean 35,000 total, but we will know more after the renderings are released.

Hmm we may want an extra general admission berm for student overflow?

Number of FSU fans and red-themed stadium definitely made it look like their home game. If we had the 2007 fan base for that 2016 game, it would have been different.

Best opening to a game (1st play bomb TD for USF), followed by the worst possible response (next play FSU rushing TD).

They are looking into everything and seeing what can be done based on the feedback that was received.

What if we just stack all the seats on tops of each other. The top seats have umbrella hats giving to them.
