DC? Philly? NYC? NFL isn’t playing Labor Day weekend yet. I don’t think the schools are going to agree to an inter-conference rotation, so the Kickoff Game would have to be brokered by a third party.
That’s not a bad idea—whatever they are calling the new Meadowlands would be ideal. The site might even be able to lure some non-NE teams like ND to the classic, especially if they get to play Penn St.
Had a similar idea with Big Eight teams in Arrowhead or STL, but I assume the stadium operators have already run the numbers and found it non-feasible. Maybe a write-in campaign?
I’d really like to see Kansas vs Missouri be an annual neutral site game at Arrowhead but Kansas is struggling and a 10th P5 game is probably more than their woe-some program could bare.
Nebraska vs Oklahoma needs to come back too but at campus sites.
No games need to be at neutral sites other than Red River Shootout, Army-Navy, and maybe WLOCP.
Neutral site games are often sterile.
Wrong.
Neutral site action is embedded in the pageantry of college football.
