RE: New Bowl In Orlando To Have Sunbelt Ties (begins 2014)

Georgia Southern is the closest school to Orlando and I doubt even they would have 30k there.
5,000 to 7,000 tops in actually numbers for UL-L...
being able to jump in a car and drive 2 hours and spending $500 is a whole totally different ball game than jumping in that car and driving 10 hours. Not many families (mother/father/2children) will be able to make this trip under under $3,000 by flying including hotel and car rental. Add in a weekend at the parks and you are pushing $4,500. We are talking about a family spending $3,000 to $4,500 right at Christmas.
not going to happen for anywhere close to the numbers being thrown around. The only schools pushing 10,000+ would be schools making their 1st bowl game.
I personally like this bowl better than any in CUSA other than maybe Hawaii and the Bahamas. But I love beaches and the ocean.
