Maryland provides a football stadium for Penn State fans to take over.


It's close proximity for Penn State fans to get to, and they are able to turn Byrd Stadium into a Nittany Lion home game like they did in the old days. And Maryland allows the BTN to get better subscriber license payments for Maryland cable subscribers. The other schools put up with the travel there to get those license payments.

The Big Ten doesn't get any more exposure than they had before Maryland's inclusion. But they will use the opportunity to sell Maryland recruits that they are local, and they will exploit the territory making it harder for Maryland to recruit in state.
