Flash forward to your school... Gainesville is a college town. Jacksonville is 1.5 hour drive i.e. shorter than a trip to Tallahassee. Gainesville also is only 1.5 minutes from Orlando (a metro with a large population) and 2 hours from Tampa/St Pete (another large metro). 2 Hours (Max) is not alot of travel time to attend football games all season.

But you should have already known that...

News Flash: FSU/USF game set a record for attendance at Raymond James Stadium, yes a professional football stadium. I am sure you are aware of normal USF attendance. Since you like pictures, here was USF vs Rutgers this year.
I can't decide if there will be 20k or 30k empty seats next week vs BC at Ron Zook field.
