Tough way to start the year going on the road three times.

only 3 D1 teams at home. only SFU as a rivalry game at home. at least they avoided a home game over thanksgiving break next year.

Come here and lose? Don't blame them for backing out. What if those poor Floridians had to play in 50 degree weather? It's inhumane. #Jackassville 😜

They SHOULD have been or able to "let the city" use Heinz for at least 1 game a year. Whether a Pitt away game, no games on an odd weekend, or a Thursday night warmer weather tilt. Also with less city schools the Rooney field should be a track, practice field and utilize cupples within walking distance. Shuttle from the ample parking in station square. 9000 probably a little more appealing with the travel than a 1000 seat practice field.

It's more likely that the Dukes would look to Highmark Stadium in Station Square for a facility with a larger seating capacity until Rooney Field is upgraded. 

did not realize Liberty was moving up to FBS. good luck to them, i guess
