From an ACC perspective, matching Virginia Tech against UCF would be ideal. A Virginia Tech loss will have very little impact to ACC recruiting since Beamer has focused less and less on recruiting from Florida (VT recruits heavily from the Maryland-Virginia area including heavy recruiting from Hampton Roads - places where UCF does not recruit). A Miami, Pitt, UNC, or NC State loss would be a recruiting nightmare since Miami, Louisville, Pitt, NC State and UCF compete for recruits from South Florida and a UCF victory would have secondary benefits to East Carolina.
As for this game, the BITCOIN (and previous) St. Pete bowls love UCF since for many Alums from East Central Florida it's an overnight trip (and alums in the Bay Area can easily attend) and, since the game is on the day after Christmas in a baseball stadium that holds 29,000 (made for ESPN and a horrible place to play), a sell out is almost certain. I would expect, similar to the Rutgers game a few years ago or Ball State two years ago, VT bringing about 3000 - 4000 down.
Mean ticket price is around $60.00 - just like Bright House.
