I understand where you are coming from Happy. However, the trophy would have to stop and I think that you are overestimating public support of an away game in Kent or Akron. Yes, the level of interest would be higher than maybe RMU in Pittsburgh. However not as high as an away Big-6 game, or as high as a home game with Kent or Akron. It is not fair to the long-term Penguin fans, but I see no justification and a very high degree of risk of fan loss. You see, many fans do not see these two clubs as a pair of IA/FBS schools with 22 more scholarships ...they view them as the bottom of the football power hierarchy.
Now if our team begins to improve, then maybe we can consider 2 money games ...as the western conferences do. Even the Dakotas and UNI have done it. However, if we lose both, then we have no choice but a 1 or 2 loss conference record, or it is no play-off with 4 losses.
