On the ledger UConn spent roughly $4.28 million for the trip. It received $2.52 million for getting absolutely drilled by the Oklahoma Sooners. As always, the school band bears the brunt of blame.
According to the report, UConn's big loss came in ticket sales. It sold only 2,771 of the allotted 17,500 tickets, resulting in a $2,924,385 million loss, which all but offset the conference payout it received. UConn said Wednesday it actually sold about 4,600 tickets, the same number it reported sold in December.
"When we go to the Fiesta Bowl bid, we received zero tickets free," said UConn associate athletic director Mike Enright. "Yet we had some internal responsibilities before we could even start a public sale. We had to buy 400 tickets for the band, we had to buy tickets to fulfill corporate sponsorship packages, which generate $7.5 million to the athletic department, we had to fulfill obligations for tickets for coaching staff per contracts and student-athletes' families. So the number of tickets we sold was 4,600."
Uconn lost 1.8 million dollars for going to the Fiesta Bowl. So your telling me that there aren't ravenous UCONN fans in Arizona? Nooo way. College football is so fucked up that teams are better off financially if they lose rather than win. "Oh, you just won the Big East, now can you write a check for 1.8 million to the NCAA." The NCAA is more evil than that hot chick owner from Charlie Sheen's finest movie, Major League. And to top it all off Uconn got shit jammed up their virgin BCS asses by the giant throbbing cock that is the Oklahoma Sooners. Just think of Oklahoma like a really high priced prositute that fucks you in the ass for 1.8 million dollars. UCONN- NOT winning.
