If we buy 10,000 extra tickets that we can't use that may cost $400-500K - do we want to spend that kind of money for the Music City Bowl?

Absolutely not!

As much as I prefer Music City to Emerald, I agree as well. No sense in draining the athletic budget to 'top' Virginia's lobbying package. I'd rather spend that kind of money on facilities and recruiting.

You must not be either of the players I talked to today. They realized that they will have very few fans cheering them on in San Fransisco.

I think its the highest form of disrespect to the players to think that they would prefer a field trip versus playing in a big game. They are competitors, and they wouldn't be here if they weren't.
To a man, each player's highest reward would be to play in the biggest game they could.

Don't get me wrong on this. I am not saying that nashville would have provided that much more of a big game. I only tried to make the comment that most if not all of the players want the highest ranking bowl game, regardless of the destination.
