Pretty sure the UConn game is going to be played on 11/23, so the timing would make sense.  We really should have paired at least one of the basketball teams to play in NYC the weekend we played Pitt at YS.

Last I knew, the Yankees were planning on getting Army and ND together in 2024 to play 100 years after their 1924 game in old YS.  Just like they did with Pitt and Syracuse in 2023.

The game has not been announced yet but I think it is going to happen.  If it does, the date for the game will be 11/23.

So it is very possible the Yankees have SU vs UConn as their backup plan in case Army vs ND that day does not work out.  That would explain the long delay in formally announcing the date for SU-UConn as well as the reluctance to even name a venue.

If ND and Army do play at YS 11/23, what happens with SU v UConn?  They could stick with the NYC plan and play at MetLife.  Or CitiField (Mets stadium).

Or more likely, play it at the Rent and scrub any plans to pair the football game with basketball games between the schools.

I would guess we will find out what is happening soon.  My personal hope is that we never play at YS again.

But if we have to, it would be cool to have another game (or even two) to attend while in the area…..
