SC State is a Div 1 AA football program that is getting paid a substantial amount to play USC........shut up and quit whining.

First off, I graduated from USC, not SC State, so as an alumni, I have the ABSOLUTE right to say what I have to say regarding the school I graduated from.
Second, I have many family and friends who graduated from SC State and support their football program. This will be a big deal when this happens and there will be a lot of SC State fans who will support this event. Knowing this, giving them more tickets in my personal opinion would be good and that will give their fans an opportunity to cheer on their favorite school.
And yes, this game is A BIG DEAL! Especially in the African American community. This is the first time both of these teams have played each other and this will give many fans, especially African Americans, to see how small SC State will face against the all mighty USC.
Besides, I heard on the news that the USC Athletic Dept. has decided to give SC State 2,000 tickets. Case closed. But trust me, there will be more than 2,000 SC State fans at Williams-Brice.
