Title: Predictions on Big Ten teams' home venues Winter/Spring 2021
Post by: Hawkinole on August 26, 2020, 01:06:00 AM
I am curious where Big Ten football games will be played if we actually have football in January. I am not sure the locations of domed stadiums throughout the Midwest and to the east.

I predict University of Iowa home games will be played at the UNI-Dome in Cedar Falls.

Obviously Minnesota games would be played at U.S. Bank Stadium.

Where would the remaining Big Ten teams play home games?

Would Nebraska play in the Dakota Dome in Vermillion? It is a 3-hour drive. What dome is closer?

The only local option for OSU would be the Woody Hayes ATC. 

I've seen a number of lacrosse games in there, in February. It holds a few thousand normally. Probably only a few hundred properly "socially distanced"

How many teams could play in Indy in a week?  Play Fri/Sat/Sun.

Might get 5 games in at one venue per weeks.

I think that part of the plan that I saw was to utilize Indy and possibly another indoor stadium to hold most of the games. Not sure where I saw that or if it even relevant.

Why would you play indoors?

cause we don't want to put players and coaches at a health risk of freezing temperatures
