Notre Dame & Wisconsin Agree to 2020 & 2021 games

And I think the crowd possibly favors Wisconsin in Soldier Field. So both neutral sites could be pro-Wisconsin atmospheres.

Should be home and home.

Thats ok since ND still views isself as "American's Team"

I've worked commercial construction my entire life not to mention I read the report. Kelly should have copt a manslaughter charge for the shit he pulled that day. Teams within a hundred miles of South Bend were calling off practices due to high winds and that fat fvck pos sent that kid up on a scissor lift. Kelly is the Ray Rice of football coaches.

he killed 32 kids at Cincinnati no biggie

It was a friggen accident, mang. I don't think BK woke up that day and says "I think I'll got out kill a kid named Declan, today."

The hard lesson was learned and he'll have to carry that with him.

Declan? De Klan?

 

[PEOPLESCHICKEN]

So who will be coaching these teams when the games get here.

Can't speak for ND but I am pretty sure Barry Alvarez will be coaching Wisky

 

[PEOPLESCHICKEN]

Why don't any (except GA this year ) SEC teams schedule the eye rash??

Could it be their (ND) inbred ACCness???? just a guess

During last year's Michigan-Wisc game I thought I had the misfortune of sitting amongst some Badger fans. Had a great time, they were good people

Chicago papers are all about ND and NW football.

Chicago papers are all about ND and NW football.

So? Wisconsin has one of the best traveling fan bases in the country and Chicago already has tons of Wisconsin alumni and fans. I didn't say for sure it would be pro-Wisconsin but it could be. Wouldn't surprise me to see it about 50-50.

Does Jerry Jones know this?

HUH????

2016: Nevada, Army and Navy 9 P5 Teams
2015: UMASS, Navy and Temple: 9 P5 teams
2014: Rice, and Navy: 10 P5 teams
2013: Temple, Air Force, Navy and BYU: 8 Power 5 teams

All the other Power 5 schools are in a Power 5 League, meaning their
8 or 9 conf games are against Power 5 schools.

Yeah the past schedules weren't hard. BUT, the future schedules are brutal.

Ha! That's because the teams in Illinois are trash. I'm surprised they cover Northwestern.

 

[nathans8823]

I'm surprised they cover Northwestern.

EDIT: Not really actually, probably required as a local team.

The Northern Illinois Huskies have had a few good years recently ....

Good point.

Ahh, thanks, missed that yesterday. I'm sure you probably wish it was being played on campus, but I think that's pretty neat.

Article reads like it was a Wake decision. Bank of America Stadium is 80 miles away from Wake's football stadium.

The Charlotte Sports Foundation expects up to 40,000 Wake fans there. The 2011 ND/Wake game played in Winston had an announced attendance of over 36k.

Ah, interesting. It does make sense given you can have more fans. Just wasn't sure if Wake fans would have preferred it to be on campus.

I think the general consensus among Wake fans is that they'd prefer the game to be played in Winston-Salem, but putting it in Charlotte isn't a huge kick in the nuts, either. After Winston and Greensboro, Charlotte is the city with the most Wake grads living in it. Its also a short drive from Winston.

It would have to be Wake's decision...It was their home game. Wake is giving up the
Home Field advantage for the cash. Wake's capacity at Groves is 31,500. Last year
they averaged 26K+ for home games. ND will bring 30K, by itself to Charlotte.

Agreed, its fairly obvious why they're doing this.

About time ND faced a decent team out of conference.
