Last time we played in Raymond James we sweat so bad we almost had heat stroke. One of the hottest damn games I ever been to.

i was there - Igot tickets in the shade and my wife still made us leave early and go home to Englewood. It was hot but in December will be nice.

idk if I've ever seen bowl match ups change like this after being announced. weird

Maybe Tech told them we ain't going to no Birmingham Bowl and we outrank Duke.

really owning up to all clown conference. It is an objectively better bowl game for GT, against yet another tough G5 draw with home crowd advantage.

Understand it wasn’t official (Bham bowl) but I don’t think it’s ever taken this long to lock these down.

How sweet it would he if we play UCF after clown got fired after playing them last year

Thanks. I didn’t realize that. I was at the last one that sucked when they were G5. At least we came back with one less person…

Objectively it’s much better game then.

Man I've already talked to at least 5-6 people who bought group tickets to the B-ham bowl when the media reported on Kelly's report.

I would say this definitely looks like a better bowl being in Tampa and against a P5 squad but I have a feeling most people still think UCF is a G5 team.

How many points is UCF favored by?

 

[GT_B]

Will be buying 3 tickets at 8pm. Taking my dad and one of my brothers.

 

[bobongo]

How many points is UCF favored by?

I would guess UCF will be favored by a couple of points, mostly due to it being essentially a home game for them.

 

[Thwg777]

How many points is UCF favored by?

A helluva lot fewer than the 20.5 they were favored by under goof.

My swag is GT +4 but like the bookmakers, I had been focusing on GT v Troy…

 

[gojackets!]

Yea for Tampa! A Tallahassee contingent will heading that way. Go Jackets!!
