Against Michigan? Tens of thousands. Against UCF? A few thousand.

A lot will depend on how expensive flights to Tempe are. UCF brought a big crowd to Atlanta last year, but I suspect that many of them drove up from Orlando. I hope that we will bring somewhere in the 20-25K range. It would be nice to see a big crowd of Tigers at a bowl game for a change.

I’d very seriously probably go.

Go up for the weekend, go to the Knights/Yotes game on the 30th and Suns/Warriors game on NYE night. It seems like it would be a fun trip.

It's the best bowl game we've been to since the 2007 season. The whole "we're too good to play UCF" narrative needs to die. If we don't travel well yet AGAIN, I hope we get called out on it by the media and embarrassed nationally.

UCF has a huge undergrad enrollment of like almost 60k. I’d imagine those college kids traveling because it’s a very similar party scene. They’ll bring a very large fan base. They have a chance to beat 2 sec teams in 2 major bowls back to back.

Not many LSU fans don’t travel unless it’s to Dallas or Houston

Shall I schedule the g5 for NYE old sport? Figure we can ring in the new year in Vegas with Paul and the ladies then shoot down to Az after midnight.

Sorry, not wasting my money on UCF. Once again bowls fail to matchup LSU and Michigan. I will watch from home.

I think you’ll be surprised. It will def be more than the rant’s prediction of a couple hundred. I know a full group who would do NYE there.
