It's obvious you feel passionate about this and nothing and no one is going to change your mind but...
 
You do realize that most considered the 3 game series with PSU as the equivalent of 2 for 1 when it was signed, right?  After the scandal, things might be different, but I guarantee you that at the time of its signing, SU knew going in that as badly outnumbered in terms of ND fans vs SU fans at MetLife, the same ratio would favor PSU fans over SU fans.
 
The key difference is that at least we get PSU in the Dome, if that contract is ever fulfilled, since by the time that game rolls around the BiG could have a 9 game schedule with the Nits backing out of it for that reason.
 
From my perspective, 2 for 1 (which is what the prior ND deal was, and what the PSU series truly was for all intent and purposes when it was signed) is as bad for the image of SU football as the MetLife games/away series.  At least the latter gives the illusion to the fans outside the northeast that SU considers the MetLife as a "home" game.  There simply is no doubt when it's 2 for 1 which is the "small-time" team.
