After watching some of the highlights from todays game, why is there no military presence at our games?

We have McDill right here in Tampa, plus a full ROTC program. Why not a military section in the stadium, or a section in the student endzone for ROTC students in uniform. Maybe even get ROTC a real cannon to fire instead of the fake Boom box.

I've never noticed a military presence at other teams games, and I've been to quite a few CFB games at various stadiums and seen as many as anyone on here and never seen much of a military presence. What teams are you seeing this with?

I approve of this. Funnily enough, I mentioned this to my gf at the Rutgers game. An entire section dedicated to military. Maybe another entire section for a Boys and Girls club or some kind of charity for children. WOuld be a great way to foster fandom in the military and in young kids.

Could that have been their ROTC people? Just a guess. I've seen several at other football games as well.

    "There is no inherent fear among this group of players. The fear of failing drove the program from day one - the fear of failing the coaches, the fan base, the university, each teammate, themselves. Now, as we head into the biggest game in our history at home on a national stage against the highest ranked team to step on OUR field, the players are taking an introspective look at themselves. Unfortunately, I don't know if they get it. They lack the fear."

    Terry Lucas, 09/26/22
