MACC on the Move? - Wheres_Waldo? - 04-13-2017 04:35 PM
Maybe it's old news here, but there are discussions about moving the MACC game to the NFL Hall of Fame facility.

Would make sense except for the weather. Smaller facility and probably a whole lot cheaper than giving your business to an organization that shunned the MAC from its bowl game.

I like the MACC at Ford Field, not just because it's indoors, but it tends to give the MAC West a bit of an advantage when it's UT or a MI MAC team (the MAC East gets their crowd advantage in basketball).
Especially now since we don't have the Motor/Pizza Bowl anymore. So no team will feel like they're going to Detroit twice in a row.

The basketball tournament is played in Ohio. Leave the Football championship indoors and in Michigan. Much more pleasant environment in Ford Field the first week of December, than it would be outdoors in northern Ohio.

Ford Field is a great facility and it's pretty much centrally located. No reason to move it.

It is obvious that this game needs to be played at Marshall.

We have a pretty good record there too.

Given the recent growth, it would be irresponsible to move this game out of Detroit.

Lol And they would still find a way to win it even though they are not in the conference.

should take all that money they make from #MACtion and have the MACC in Orlando. If it's going to be moved, go big or not at all
