@Sean_Callahan People ripping on Nebraska's early sales should also realize flights from Omaha to Orlando are $800 to $1000 round trip. Hard to justify.

 :lol:

I was ready to call bullshit on this.  Then looked on kayak and he's right. 

Guess that's what happens when your airport is in the middle of nowhere.  KCI flights are $200 cheaper.   

yeah, I'm sure he was right about the ticket cost. doesn't alter my  :lol: at NU fans and media making excuses for poor bowl game ticket sales

I think the difference in ticket sales is found in the number of fans who wondered off blackout drunk and/or killed themselves.

Yeah, I don't have too much sympathy for those tards considering flights from KC to Phoenix on Southwest are running well over $1,000+.

Wouldn't the greatest fans in college football overwhelmingly support their team in its bowl game no matter what?  Plane ticket costs, the disappointment of missing on the bowl you thought you would be in and knowing Georgia will rape their team Deliverance-style shouldn't discourage the best fans in college football.
