We need marque games. Biggest names in the future are Mich St and NC St after 2013.

Thoughts of season openers in Orlando?

Sure, I am for it but is it not about TV (ESPN evil bastards) payout that would make this a reality?

Maybe our new TV partners will leverage.

Families want to come to Orlando on long weekends.

I don't see playing a neutral site game in Orlando as a plus. Jacksonville maybe, as long as it doesn't take away one of our home games.

Orlando would give us better attendance, where we have trouble.

Question is WHO would we like to play to add to our OOC, to give us some marque games to look forward to? I say (in no particular order) my top 10 dream teams would be

Georgia

USC

LSU

Michigan

Oregon

Ok St

Oklahoma

Alabama

Texas

ND

Any of these games would be a blast either neutral site OR road game...

The citrus bowl sucks. If the team is big enough to require a neutral site game, then they should be big enough to make Bulls fans travel to Jax.

I'm trying to figure out how driving an hour and a half away to play in a crappy stadium will help attendance.

Our fan base is small and would guess a Large portion are in Tampa. Driving to Orlando would be more likely than to Jax.

#2 and 3 $EC and Big10 schools play their bowl games there.
