I can not believe we are still talking about MetLife games.  Holy crap.  What don't people understand?!!!! 
These games are scheduled years in advance.  They weren't home games that were moved.  They were originally scheduled in NYC as part of the scheduling negotiations. 
If you recall, we were in the Big East trying like hell to get out so these games were necessary.
As you can see, now that we are in the ACC, we are starting to schedule bigger names in the dome...see LSU for example.  
We were targeting NYC and NJ recruits under Marrone so these games helped big time. 
Playing at MetLife helped attract a better opponent since NYC is an attraction. 
We received a heck of a lot more money for these games than a regular home game at the dome where no one feels like showing up for some reason. 
Do you not see ND, Florida State, LSU and many other major program doing the same thing playing games in Dallas, Atlanta, Indianapolis or Baltimore?
It was a no brainer people!  Get over it.
