[catcher_0_3]

UGA vs. UF in the Georgia Dome as a "Neutral Site Game".


But in all seriousness.

FSU vs. UGA in the Dome
Boise vs. Oklahoma in Arizona
Alabama vs. USCw in Dallas

[rockytop52]

Ahh you beat me to it. lol:

USC vs. Texas @ Cowboy Stadium
Alabama vs. Oregon @ Georgia Dome
Florida vs. Stanford @IDK
Oklahoma vs. Arkansas

Im just gonna create good match ups at the beginning of the season.

UGA/GT in the dome? Or make Tech play Georgia state in the Battle for Atlanta every year. That's not a real thing btw. Although its not in the game, I wish we could use Legion Field as a neutral Iron Bowl site

Is Arizona (Glendale) a neutral site option? If so,

Texas vs. Arizona
Oregon vs. Oklahoma St
Arizona St./Arizona vs. UCLA/USC

EDIT: Thought of a good one
Georgia vs. North Carolina in Atlanta (and return game in Charlotte -- A literal border war, GA and NC have shed blood over disputed territory)

I have been wanting to get a neutral site game for PSU in my dynasty and I was thinking PITT. However, I think that series would be better suited for alternating home teams every year.

I know this is a little off topic... But I am going to change the B1G title game to Soldier field instead of Lucas oil stadium. B1G football was meant to be played outside... C'mon now

[tcc23]

You can add UNC and South Carolina to that list, they play in Charlotte in 2015

Is Soldier Field an option?
