Message: [QUOTE="Scooch, post: 1277397, member: 628"] We'll probably agree to disagree on this one, but I can't think of any "right" NYC games. We've played Penn State and ND there. Those are the two most-popular college football teams in the NYC metro area, hands-down, no question. I've seen years worth of data to back that up. In both cases SU fans were outnumbered 3-to-1. The recruiting benefits, beyond platitudes and talking points, seem to be negligible. Plus, we originally did it for money and now we don't desperately need that money. And there's no chance MetLife would give us whatever payout they did originally anyway, now that they know we won't bring more than 20K fans to a game there. They might as well do a deal directly with the programs that actually fill the place. We have a home field, we should play our non-road games there. [/QUOTE]
