Do you honestly think we would sell more tickets than the 9K for St. Pete?  I don't see it. 

Sure you'll have additional interest due to a better opponent, but I think that’s a wash with the people who won’t travel 4 hours to a game.  Hell, we can't even get half of our season ticket base to drive 30 minutes to a game.

We had half the stadium at FAU last season when we were in the top 10.  That was anywhere between 8500-10,000.  I do think we would be ok at the Orange Bowl.  I don't know that we would sell 17K tickets, but we would get more than 10K.

If we were in the Orange Bowl I think it would be a safe assumption that we'd get about 10k there.  I'd be surprised if we had many more, but not surprised if the University had to eat more than 7k left over  tickets.

Bigger Bowl, More People

New Bowl played on an indoor baseball field, Not so much.

Very simple concept

People, myself included, don't understand the 50K average home attendance leading to 22K for the bowl.  I have 6 season tickets and I bought 8 bowl tickets.  It doesnt matter though.  I'll have fun.

I think the Bulls nation would unite for a high profile BCS game. I think we would get 15K. The orange bowl is one of the best bowls out there. The st. pete bowl is one of the worst bowls, and most people probably aren't intrigued by our 6-6 Comedy USA opponent.

We had 5k easily for FIU, with our section being not only GA but also the worst.  I think we'd have surprised people at the amount of people USF would've brought to the Orange Bowl.

That being said, we need to get the bandwagoners to stay on!!!

I dunno. Throught the school Orange Bowl tix are $165 a pop.

We'd get some down there, but the prices would deter a lot.

You can get Orange Bowl tickets on Stubhub for $3.00 a piece.

    We've talked about getting back to being the toughest, most violent people out there. Let's be the best version of ourselves and really get back to the culture of how we (USF) used to step across the line and play anybody. Let's hold on to the culture of when they were tough … and they (opponents) knew it was going to be long damn day for themselves.

    Last I checked the scoreboard doesn't have a spot for current bank balance on it.
