I agree.  Much respect for Camp Randall.  It is one of the college football venues I want most to visit.  Plus, it is close to Chicago, where we have a recruiting presence and a place cheap and simple for SU fans to travel to.

That being said, when you are a struggling P5 program, it is relatively easy to to schedule a football power.  Especially a B1G one with their new scheduling rules.

What we should be focusing on is trying to schedule fellow struggling P5 programs, or FCS programs.  Ones that play in areas we recruit.  The bad programs are the ones most in demand, the ones that smarter programs are locking games with now.

Lock in series with Colgate, Purdue, Indiana, Northern Illinois, Rutgers, FIU, FAU, UMass, Temple, Akron,  etc.

Emphasize programs we can beat that play in areas that are important for us recruiting. Yes, let's continue to play a tough P5 opponent some years.  But focus on securing the scarce commodity first.  This is why the UConn series was a better move for Syracuse than the Wiscy series...
