So... There is more here than just moving the game to Santa Clara in 2014. As you guys know, LSJU has wanted to end the arrangement of playing UC and ND at home in the same season for quite some time. Also, UC has wanted to rebalance it's home slate as well (currently, UC plays UO, UW, UCLA and LSJU at home in even numbered years and, lesser lights, OSU, WSU [and SC] in odd numbered years).
Because (here's the key) UC will host the 2015 game and push LSJU hosting back to 2016, the game in 2014 is truly a neutral site affair with both schools giving up something (hosting in their normal slot) and get something - a rebalanced schedule.
OK. The guard that watches over sanity in college football may stand down. There are other bigger fish to fry.........
