Gator couldn't afford to have another horrible turnout like the last 2 years. That's a huge stadium so it won't likely sellout the 80,000+ seats but UT will bring 50K by themselves which alone will be a big improvement over the last 2 years.

Your comment says all we need to know about you. 10 in a row says even more. We pretty much own Tennessee look it up.

So does all this mean that you're not playing in Birmingham for your bowl?

Yup. When it comes to non-playoff bowls, ticket sales and fan travel matter and they matter a lot. And depending on the other tie-in, presumably Iowa, we may be making up for the other fanbase. I honestly don't know how their fans travel. It's death though for a bowl game to have 2 teams that no one travels to see.

I'm sure Tennessee fans will represent well, but not well enough to make up for the fact that casual interest in the game will be lower than ever.

Are you a member of some committee which ranks one's popularity on a web thread? Get out of here with that.

Yeah? Glad you can count. Your ability to remind me how many times yall have beat us means nothing to me. Yall have what, 7 recruits left? The tide is shifting. We'll have our cyclical run soon enough.

Glad Tennessee is bowling, and best of luck to your Gators. I'll even be pulling for you guys against whomever you play.

They're just overcome with emotion. They haven't been to a bowl since 2010.

If you need more proof that the #Volunteers and #Hawkeyes are the best fans in America, they've taken down our website #breaktheinternet

This.

Florida did not care to follow an eleven win team to the Sugar bowl. Those things do not go unnoticed. With a lame duck staff, the bowls know they will travel even worse.

Florida's crowd will make it look like UAB had good fan support.

I'm not sure what Florida fans are more angry about... UT in the Gator bowl or only having 7 shitty commitments.

I'm not angry. Is UT angry that they went 0-4 vs. muschamp?
And those 7 shitty commits will still beat UT for the 11th time in a row.
