The USF-West Virginia game Friday is a sellout, according to the USF ticket office.
It's the first sellout in USF's 11-year football history with 65,857 fans expected at Raymond James Stadium.
"There are no tickets remaining for that game," assistant athletic director Jim Louk said in a message on USF's ticket line. "Individual game tickets are sold out, as are Tampa campus student tickets and mini plans."
USF is now selling three-game mini-plan packages for the the Bulls remaining three home games against Central Florida, Cincinnati and Louisville.
Times sportswriter Greg Auman, who covers USF, will post news and thoughts on the Bulletin and we invite your participation in the comments area.
So for those who aren't GOING to the game.. where will you be watching it at?

Where is the mid-level basketball team you speak of?

Greg, your blog has become a very silly place...and I like it.
Thank you cee! We owe for you helping to galvanize us!
In fact, I credit cee with the sellout. If hadn't donated over half of Leavitt's salary, and half the budget for the university, we would just be a commuter school with a mid-level basketball team. But cee has by himself taken USF to a new level of greatness.
BTW- everyone at the game who reads this blog should have a sign saying "Where's cee?"

If anyone is interested in letting WVU know that we will be representing on Friday night give them a call. They have a sport talk show from 6 - 7pm and it appears that it would be a perfect platform to show that USF is here to stay. I figured if 10 people called that would fill up a lot of airtime. I can't wait until Friday night. Phone Number is - 1-800-765-8255.
LET THEM HEAR ABOUT OUR GREENOUT SELLOUT...

Yeah, so you may have sold out every seat in the house but your tickets don't look as good as West Virginia's tickets. You need to have pretty tickets in order to have any hope of winning this game.
