Florida State Seminoles (official thread)

$$$

FSU has none
That's why I figured they need the ticket sales and vending. Every game we play away from Ohio Stadium we lose a crap load of money. F$U isn't a MAC school or Sun Belt, and I know comparing them to is also ridiculous but their school doesn't pay all the bills from football revenues does it? Maybe I'm just looking at every thing through first world football glasses.

They're like 200MM in the hole. They have way way way overextended themselves on upgrades to Doak and other athletic facilities.
Getting 6-8mm upfront to play in the Titans new stadium is a win for them rather than waiting two years for a potential ticket sales and/or concessions bucks.

From our perspective, we wanted the premium (heh) opponent and FSU had the leverage. Either play the game at a Neutral site or cancel it and reschedule with TAMU or Troy or some other paycheck game.
Kind of cool we get to play in the new titans stadium and Nashville is always a party.
