Some of the greatest football games were played outdoors. Steelers, Packers etc. It is great to see teams battle the elements. I love to watch games in the snow. I could not care if some corporate executive wants to sit in stadium that is 80 degrees. Baseball isn't afraid to have playoff games in October in any MLB stadiums. I don't understand why football (which claims it is a "man's game"😉 can't battle the elements.
The idea that Northern cities wouldn't support a bowl game is a joke. Michigan has had over 100,000 people at every home game since 1975. You think they wouldn't fill up a bowl?
It is simply stupid and unfair to have all the games in one region of the country. There is no rosed color glasses in this issue it is just that I don't have to swallow whole the notion that a Championship football game has to be played in the sun of the south.
