I live an hour from Tally and have zero desire to watch any of those games in person.
An FSU podcast a couple months ago talked the issues for ticket sales even with a good home slate. There aren't a lot of people within a 100 mile radius of Tallahassee compared to other power 5 programs. There are around 500k more people within 100 miles of Lincoln NE, than Tally

Guys lets not kid ourselves. The schools are still making a ton of money from ticket sales and donations. They are just going to have to be conservative with their money.
If they were losing money then you would see less staff and less donor fees to generate interest in the program.
90% of donors are in the bottom donation levels, while the most money comes from the 10% of the top donor levels. As long as the schools have rich donors, they care little about the people trying to save money to buy season tickets outside the 35 yard line.

and for years (maybe it has changed; don't know) there simply were not enough hotel rooms in tally to house folks having to drive so far to a game. that put night games a rarity and day games hot as frick. you have to put a top team on the field just about every year to fight those obstacles.
