FSU needs football game for 2006

[Papa_Bull]

They just signed a home game in 2006 with Troy State are are supposedly looking for another.

FSU: A home game was added against Troy State in 2006, filling one of two openings in FSU's nonconference schedule. The Seminoles still need to find a game, most likely on the road, to replace Miami, which counts as a league game beginning this fall.

The new USF AD starts work on Monday, so maybe he can give them a call ASAP.

home game vs FSU?  that would be fun!

The will never go on the road to play an in-state upstart like USF.

This is like a backyard recruiting area for them. The only plus would be that RJS would probably sell out with all the stinkin' FSU grads in the Tampa Bay area.

Please! USF get this done, a game versus FSU at RJS, Yippee!

FSU vs USF @ RJS.  Now that's serious South Florida dreamin'.

[namuh-bull]

I hope we can do it.   FSU would think of it as a home game, and we would sell out the entire stadium if they opened the upper level (albeit there would be more of their fans in the stadium than ours), so we could offer a good payout.

I'd offer enough of a payout that we would only break even on the game.  Let them have all profits that day just for giving us the opportunity to pull the upset of a lifetime and get our name on the map!

Won't happen but it's nice to dream

What's the upper bowl seat?  25,000?  I would give them the ticket revenue from that ($625,000 at $25, but maybe we would charge $30 and still give them $625,000 and keep the rest for us).  We could use some money too, you know.  Hey, just make it a $600,000 payout.

I'm sure we could make the deal sweet enough to make it happen... but it is probably a huge pipedream.

Time to earn your money Woolard!
