I'm no events planner and/or stadium manager, but I'd bet it would be awfully tough to have the stadium ready 48 hours after Michigan-Florida.


Why? ABC and ESPN have a merged network. Michigan-Florida fans check out of their hotels Sunday morning. LSU-BYU fans check in Sunday afternoon. Do you know how many stadiums around the country regularly host a P-5 college football game on Saturday and an NFL game on Sunday? Miami, Tampa, LA, Pittsburgh. San Diego did it for decades as well. The Falcons will be hosting the Vikings in a 1 PM game about 18 hours after the conclusion of the SEC Championship game.
