[Husker] Poor Ticket Sales

[Paul Dalen]

Slow ticket sales may be a function of every game being on TV.  I think NU
fans will attend this game at the same rate they attend every other big
away game.  But folks are learning that there's a lot better way to get
tickets than from the Universities.

At some point, the schools are going to call BS on the mandatory ticket
purchase requirement and start making the bowls compete for ticket sales on
the open market.

If there's a member of a bowl committee out there who has ever said a word
about welfare, they're a hypocrite.
