He’s lucky the NCAA hasn’t fixed its site selection problem. Had they been playing at Notre Dame rather than the Sugar Bowl, he would probably freeze on his long walk home.
I liked the first round of the playoffs being played on campus. IMHO, ALL playoff games should be played on campus. Flip a coin. Whoever wins the flip hosts the game.
And that would mean a fair share of games being played in northern locales, in real football weather. Which they should be.
I like your suggestion.....only one problem with it.
The almighty DOLLAR
It used to be when there were a few bowl games, going to a bowl was a reward for doing well, not to mete out punishment to both the players and the fans. Hence, the warm weather or domed locations.
Whereas, the NFL traditionally play at the home team stadiums for the playoffs. It wasn’t until the Superbowl that the NFL had neutral sites for the championship.
Yep. Further destroying bowl games usefulness by having them at a non neutral site. I say just start the playoffs on the first games of the season.
None of the conference champions won their playoff games. Tossing in ACC Champ Clemson, they went 0-5.
Amen brother! Domes are for sissies. I don't pay attention to NFL games but I make sure I watch the ones played outdoors when it's cold as heck and snowing.
My favorite team is Green Bay. Not because of the team, but rather Lambeau field and games played in the snow.
This is the way football should be played...LOL!
