That's really not the point. The point is that San Diego once was a seious-level football town. But their NFL-sized stadium now is dust, their team an afterthought in the LA basin, with no replacement in San Diego except a weak little G5 30,000 seat stadium. Here they are, a wonderful city, but their lack of interest lost them an NFL football team, and now forces what could be a jewel of a bowl game (maybe pushing into the national playoff picture some years) into a demolation derby of the third-base seats. It's a sad freefall for what was once a destination football city. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Quack 12 Posted June 28, 2021 Share Posted June 28, 2021 Yeah, I would think that among P-12 affiliates, the Alamo would be the current leader, but Vegas and LA will probably move up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EastCoastFan Posted June 29, 2021 Share Posted June 29, 2021 There are baseball stadiums, places with history and panache, where playing a football game makes sense. It's an event. Think Yankee Stadium and Wrigley. But this dogs*** stadium in San Diego is beneath a P5 matchup. A city that ought to be a destination into Pac-12 territory (the way Atlanta and Tampa are to the SEC and Indianapolis is the B1G) has facilities that more match Omaha or Newark. If they had built a rock 'em venue to hold the Chargers, they'd be front-line for bigger P5 fish. Watch ... there will be a vicious fight in the ACC among bowl-eligibles to avoid this bowl option.
