On Wednesday, the Big Ten announced that the Penn State at Michigan State football regular season finale would be played at Ford Field on Black Friday. This decision seems to have divided the fanbase with good points for and against this decision.
Here’s a few of the points that I think deserve attention.
Pro: Closer drive for most of us
Obviously, there’s more Michigan State alumni than there are current MSU students and those who have already graduated and stayed in-state most likely have stayed in the tri-county area. It’s closer to drive to Detroit than it is to East Lansing and that makes for a much easier drive (depending on construction) which also means you can get back to your own bed at a better hour.
