carcross Posted June 5, 2011 Share Posted June 5, 2011 What?! No more Dallas!? What an outrage. Before you get too excited... Miles (from Google Maps): Lincoln to Dallas: 640 Miles Lincoln to Indy: 641 Miles Austin to Dallas: 199 Miles Columbus to Indy: 176 Miles Just saying.... Quote Link to comment

walksalone Posted June 5, 2011 Share Posted June 5, 2011 I'm gonna miss not playing in a stadium that looks like it should be an 80's Journey album cover Quote Link to comment
BOJ Posted June 5, 2011 Share Posted June 5, 2011 So according to that article then after a four year run in Indy it will be a four year run in Chi-town, right? "recommendation from university administrators for the cities of Chicago, Hoffman Estates and Indianapolis to rotate as the host sites for the Big Ten Football Championship Games and Men's and Women's Basketball Tournaments for a four-year period beginning with the 2012-13 academic year."

Big difference though, even though mileage is comparable. With the BiG, Indy & Chicago are roughly in the middle of the conference map. East & West meet in the middle, you couldn't say that about the Texas 12. Quote Link to comment
okaive Posted June 5, 2011 Share Posted June 5, 2011 Well we did have a run with Kansas city for awhile. Now we are back to the snow for the CCG. Pack your parkas. Quote Link to comment

BOJ Posted June 6, 2011 Share Posted June 6, 2011 Selfish reasons only, but Soldier Field would be Awesome...... Well, I am getting the picture from the article that it will circulate every four years b/t Indy and Chicago (Soldier Field) right? Quote Link to comment

Well, they weren't going to have it in F'ing Des Moines-that this should have been a given. Besides, Columbus is a non issue for the next few years anyhow, and it might be longer than that.
