I usually scalp tickets to the Bulls game because all I really have to do is get in.  Obviously this game is way different than any game we have ever had in USF history, with them selling upper bowl tix and all.

I had a girlfriend call me today saying she went to buy 14 tickets for our normal crew on campus (which we never had to do before, usually scalp or walk up and buy) and she found out she could only buy 2 at a time and the line was huge. 

With my work schedule this week there is no way I can get out there to buy 2 tix, being I am taking off all day Friday.  So my question is what do you think my probability and availability of getting a walk up ticket and more importantly me scalping tickets?

no way that you will be able to  buy tickets from the box office but you will surely be able to buy tickets from a scalper.

but you will probably be paying $50 per ticket

Might want to up that number.

CHEAPEST on stubhub is $68 for ONE.

Cheapest pair is $81 a piece.

In my experience with the Tampa sports crowd, the bigger the game is the more tickets will be for sale outside the stadium.  More tickets for sale also equals lower prices as people dont want to get stuck with them and don't want to miss anything.

I say you won't have a problem, but then this is something new for us all.  There may be all kinds of people looking for tickets at the game.

you wont pay 70 bucks for a ticket outside of the stadium.

you might on one of those websites but those  are a joke.

there will be plenty of people scalping and you shouldnt have a problem getting a ticket for $50.  of course, the face value of that ticket is probably 20 bucks but what can you do

Walk around the alumni parking lot and ask everyone you see.  Put in some time and I guarantee you will get tickets, face value tops.  Don't buy from scalpers.

I attended every home Bucs game for almost 10 years scalping tickets and never paid more than face value, no matter how big the game was.  You just gotta literally ask everyone you see, someone will have a few extra that they are just trying to unload.

If you're willing to wait it out, tickets won't be over $50.  Might want to make some friends in the Student Lot.  These seem to be the ones that are selling.

Good luck, you will be paying well over face value for whatever seats you find.

    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.

    With the climate going on in NCAA athletics, you’re either moving forward at a hard pace or you’re not. I think what intrigued me the most is they’re very determined to become a big player nationally.
