The biggest reason they travel well is that the Tampa Bay area is a vacation location. We are the road trip of choice to many schools we play. I know Louisville uses the trip here as a fundraising, golf tournament trip. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sometimes those are in good locations. So what?We only have about 16,000 season tickets...so I seriously doubt that accounts for the very many of the large number of seats occupied by visiting fans.

Green or not they had USF signs up, and were vocal on first downs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
