So-- we have 160,000 alumni living in the area and 3rd largest medial market and we move the game to a stadium basically the same size as Huskie Stadium (28,000 capacity)??????

We give up a Saturday in DeKalb and completely make a fraud of that great scheduling event we had bringing "bigger" teams to DeKalb.

I am willing to bet that we draw ZERO additional BYU alum because the game is in Bridgeview instead of DeKalb.

On--the flip side---IF we draw 20,000+ at the game---why not move EVERY game there?

Playing in a 75% empty Wrigley, G-Rate or Soldier Field would be much more appealing.

Oh yeah---I forgot "National Branding"....right out of Bridgeview, IL. Good one, Sean.
