RE: SOLD OUT
I suspect it will be 2 to 1 Clemson.

RE: SOLD OUT
Lots of Clemson fans were waiting for the last batch of tickets to be released when the Coastal was decided because all of the others were purchased.

RE: SOLD OUT
If both Clemson and North Carolina can hang on and win this weekend, it's going to be crazy
If Notre Dame loses this weekend, then I think North Carolina-Clemson becomes a playoff game....

RE: SOLD OUT
This match up is basically a best case scenario for the ACC from a ticket buying perspective. If it didn't sell out, it would be time to revisit this entire neutral stadium concept.

RE: SOLD OUT
Since the game moved to Charlotte in 2010 this is the first sellout. Twice it was near capacity.
73,778 was the capacity from 2010-2013
74,455 was the capacity in 2014
75,413 is the capacity in 2015
2010 98% 72,379 #20 FSU vs. #11 VT
2011 99% 73,675 #21 Clem vs. #5 VT
2012 88% 64,778 #12 FSU vs. GT
2013 92% 67,694 #1 FSU vs. #20 Duke
2014 87% 64,808 #2 FSU vs. #12 GT
2015 100% 75,413 #1 Clem vs. UNC
94% capacity average and 69,792 tickets sold on average.
2011 and 2015 each have higher attendance than the inaugural game in 2005 played in Jacksonville.
Charlotte definitely works.

Charlotte definitely works.
8 schools are within 4 hours of Charlotte - UVa, VT, NCSU, UNC, Duke, WF, CU, and GT. (Of these Duke and WF are too small to host, UNC, UVa, and VT are really small places around the stadiums. That leaves Clemson, NC State and GT as the only three that can host on a little notice in that group, and NC State might have a parking battle with the Carolina Hurricanes, and hotel space in and around Clemson is not abundant.
Charlotte somewhat disenfranchises BC, Syracuse, Pitt, Miami, FSU, and Louisville. However, BC and Syracuse are two small and can't host on a weeks notice. Pitt and Miami would have to deal with the Steelers and the Dolphins. Louisville is an outlier but has the facility. FSU has the facility, but getting in and out of Tally is akin to getting in an out of South Dakota or some other tertiary flight location.
What FSU really needs is an Interstate connection from 75 in Ga to 10 in Tally. Given the problems associated with hurricane evacuation, I would have thought the US DOT would have made that a priority corridor.

Once Louisville finishes the expansion of PJCS it should be moved here. ;-P

The ACC has a GREAT CCG setup. I wish basketball was as good ... Shots fired
Seriously though, how have ticket prices/req'd donations changed over the years?

The Georgia - Florida Parkway addresses the bolded today. There originally was was a planned I-175, but that along with many other expressways ended up cancelled as apart of the Freeway Revolt in the late 70's.
