Tailgater States


Summonsing a Sunday after a Saturday might be a bit much. 

East of the Mississip’. Could they handle NFL?

Big league markets already exist. Toronto untapped. Buffalo would be fine.

West Virginia. Marshal and WVU fans enough? Maybe not. Steelers suffice.

Alabama. Auburn and Big Bammy bases. Something akin even to a Green Bay situation could work.

West

Iowa and Oklahoma tout more than one big program and much of those homeboy fan bases can come together, swinging a Saturday into the Sunday. Ditto for Utah and Oregon, even though SLC and Portland dollars are substantial market metros for twice a month.

Nebraska and Arkansas not so much. I’d like to hear a case for a 50 mile stretch of Omaha to Lincoln. What about Boise?
