I guess I'll suck it up and make the trip in from Brooklyn...it's a rough life. In all seriousness though, I was already getting plans together after Temple, for myself and other alums coming in from chicago, boston, and upstate, as well as making sure any friends in the tri-state area don't waste the opportunity.
 
I can see why the players wanted warmer weather as a reward for the way they finished the season (and frankly, deserved it), but I'm selfish, and am ecstatic that they're leaving the big east with so many storylines in play: 1. Laying claim to "NYC's college team", 2. The Schwartzwalder Trophy, 3. Two ex-Big East teams duking it out in a Big East tie-in game (adding insult to injury that the future of the Big East is nowhere to be seen right in its own backyard), 4. A bowl game where SU has the best possible chance at outnumbering WV fans, 5. The fact that SU's appearance here means their 5 of 6 run for the end of the season was highly regarded enough to bump the potential Backyard Brawl matchup, and can be blamed as the reason Pitt is stuck in the BBVA Compass bowl for the third year in a row (which is just amusing).
