| Rutgers of course said no to the thought of playing ND at a neutral site, which got a lot of media attention, but I don't understand what the fuss is about. This has been in the works to try to make ND football more accessible to the ND fans across the country and you know the games are going to sell-out, so why not have more tickets and gain a little more money for ND and the other school, plus it gives that many more fans an opportunity to see them play.
People say that ND asking teams to play games at neutral sites is ND being pompous, but I don't see it that way. It is trying to fulfill the goal of why we are doing this as well as giving more people an opportunity to go. Does anyone complain when we play Navy in the Baltimore Ravens' stadium? I haven't heard anyone complain.
It isn't being pompous, it is simply a smart business decision. |
