First, as OrangeXtreme has shown we were going to play USC in the Dome until we on our own moved the game to Metlife. USC has played at Virginia, Minnesota and will play at Boston College next year. Mike Garrett ex-USC AD  only agreed to this series as a favor to his long ally/employee Dr. Gross being the AD at Syracuse. The game would have been in the Dome, USC didn't care about Metlife Dr, Gross got a good check to move this game.

What you are failing to realize is that Syracuse has a 15 game commitment to playing games at Metlife. Michigan, Notre Dame all the big schools won't play us 1 game in Metlife. We need to give whomever we play at Metlife a home game to get them to help fill OUR COMMITMENT to Metlife. You talk about the move to the ACC eliminating our road games to South Bend now while we won't be playing them in South Bend in 2015 and 2017 you can GUARANTEE that our next games in the ACC-ND 5 game commitment will be played in South Bend and it will be a LONG time before we see them in the Dome because of the is STUPID 4 game series. These opponents we will have to play in Metlife because of this stupid  15 game Metlife agreement will likely have to cause us to have to play road games to get them to play us at Metlife so we are going to doubly screw ourselves for this stupid deal.

I would rather play games with teams that will play us at the Carrier Dome and we play them at their place. These Metlife games ARE NOT DRAWING Syracuse fans. I went to the Penn State game we probably had 20k and Penn State probably had 30-35k. For USC, the entire building had 39k and that included 10-15k USC fans.
