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
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.

That had zero affect when Bobby was around. I would go to three or four FSU games a year growing up. The RV parking lot was always slammed. The place was always packed. A lot of the old guard money dried up when FSU pushed Bobby out the door the way they did.

There are more rooms now, but the prices are jacked up on football weekends.
