GT to play at MB stadium

I don't necessarily like this, but kind of understand it, especially since there should be construction around BDS in 2020.

Not big on giving up 2 home games possibly but I could get down with the ND game. Not a fan of playing conference games at “neutral sites” but if it gets us exposure and $$$$ then it is what it is. ND though could be a big draw and likely a prime time late season game.

Construction in or too BDS or just in the area?

Have never liked college games in NFL stadiums.......

Will be interesting to see the turnout at the Clemson and ND game. Kind of a peak of what GT attendance would be like had we stayed in the SEC.

Another interesting thing: Will MBS keep their Atl United/Falcons concession prices which would make taking the families to games SUPER attractive.

The 2020 initiative construction so the renovation of the edge center.

I'm cool with it if it's due to construction keeping it away.

100% not cool with it if it's to accommodate visiting fans from Notre Dame and Clemson for no other reason.

Edit: yup, according do the AJC article it is solely to accommodate opposing fans. We are giving up home games for cash. These games will definitely not be home games.

Other than a pre-season one-time matchup, NO NO NO

They kept the prices the same for the game against Tennessee. It's my understanding the prices are controlled by the stadium and don't fluctuate with performances.

 

[Supersizethatorder-mutt]

Why don't they have COFH there in '21, so we won't be forced to go to the cesspool

 

[stech81]

No don't like it don't want to play there we have a stadium.

I would much rather have GT play in Bobby Dodd Stadium

Whoever thought this up is a freaking brainiac

Nothing like giving up the one big advantage you have against a big time opponent ......home field.

Let's be honest, GT fans are more than willing to sell their own tickets to accommodate opposing fans.

And let’s be honest, ga Tech is apparently more than willing to sell a home game out from under us. An absolutely terrible idea, and not just one, but two! Horrible, horrible idea
