Leas then 10 percent oregon fans in Atlanta, curious what happened. Hear rumors Indiana but our tickets off our own site, could this have been true, or we just dont travel any more?

I think a lot of people were not convinced we would win, it's a long trip to Atlanta, and those that have the means to go were hoping to save money in anticipation of going to Miami the next week.

Indiana is doing this for the first time with a much bigger alumni base which is much closer to Atlanta.

I don't think Oregon will travel well to these games out East, it's a lot to ask families who have taken these trips in the past.

I read somewhere that Oregon's allotment of tickets were sold out.

$$$$$

Without the benefit of Uncle Phil's private aircraft, perhaps Oregon fans were hoping to spend their money on a trip to Miami to watch the champ game instead of the Orange Bowl.

850,000 living Indiana alums have not seen good football played consistently from 1887 until the last two seasons. They are feasting on the chance to follow their No. 1-ranked team.

OBD has 253,000 living alumni.

393 miles - distance from Bloomington, IN to Atlanta. Piece of cake drive for students with a couple of cases of lager on board. A short flight that isn't a budget buster.

2179 miles - distance from Eugene to Atlanta.

If the CFB PO were reseeded like the NFL PO, Oregon's game against Ole Miss in the Fiesta Bowl in Phoenix would have been well attended by Oregon fans. Ole Miss had far more fans on hand than Miami.

Indiana fans would have dwarfed Miami fans in attendance at the Peach Bowl in Atlanta.

The two remaining top seeds would have had the opportunity to play each other for the title, not just to win a semifinal game.

For so long as this Bowl Extravaganza is produced and directed by Disney/ESPN, West Coast teams will be at a travel disadvantage.

Next season, in a rare Western setting, Las Vegas hosts the title game. If OBD gets there, Allegiant Stadium will be a sea of green.

If you have been part of a program that has the 102nd wins record in NCAA history, your attitude is that you are going to buy as many tickets as you want - Rose, Peach, Miami home game. Because, for 100 years you've been nothing and you can mentally amortize the cost over those 100 years of nothing.

The Oregon fans that have the means to have traveled to Fiesta Bowls, Rose Bowls, Holiday Bowls, etc. will have a different attitude about how much to spend to go to CFP games near the Eastern Seaboard.

I’m more surprised anyone would be surprised by this…pretty sure there weren’t any shenanigans or Duck fans getting outfoxed for tickets. Is there an example of a game east of the Mississippi where we ever had even 25% in the stands?

For an old PAC school, I’d say we travel decently overall, but nothing compared to what most B1G do.
