GA Tech fans travel well, USF fans have shown to travel well for Big games as well (FSU, ND, Auburn ect...) If we cant get 10,000 to 15,000 of our own fans to drive to Jacksonville less than 4 hours than we have bigger problems than Skip, the AD and the BE.

If Skip is still here this may be our only "Bowl like" game.

No matter where the game is played, I won't go as long as Skip is our coach.

Jax is a bad idea... there's no way that stadium gets sold out for GT/USF and there's no way that it doesn't come off as a wannabe game to the UF/UGA game.

Keep it at the local school sites.

I'm pretty sure the Jax info is incorrect.

I do not think we should dismiss the Jacksonville game that quickly, I'm not saying that it would not present a challenge or be viewed as a minor version of the "cocktail party, but it is definetly worth a look. Georgia Tech would travel well so that is not a problem. For USF to travel well to jacksonville the game would have to be the first or 2nd game of the season after the 1AA opponent, this way all the hope of a new season will still be there and fans will travel. The people of Jacksonville might also want to see college football in addition to the Gator/Dogs game. You never know both schools could make money over the deal. It wold be nice if this became a long term "tradition"

It's this type of outside the box thinking that USF needs to take part in.

It was mentioned a few years ago that we may look to play a game there.

Earliest it could be in 2013 is the 3rd week of the season if FAU comes off the schedule.
