Sunbury Big Walnut HS. Closest to geographic center of state.
Yeah I misinterpreted a formula that was actually population center, not geographic. And of course the population center changes regularly, by changes in method and moving population.Actually, that would be Centerburg.
I I'm just surprised none of the MAC schools never built a dome. Akron was probably the best candidate when they were replacing the Rubber Bowl.
What a waste of a great stadium. It should never have been built.And Akron would still be the only FBS school without a win this season. Afraid to admit I have a degree from there.
I don't really care where it's at. Ive been up north three times and it's a cool venue but... I wish Columbus had a good place to have the games
Ridiculous. Time for CBP.For anyone curious, Jordan won their first ever state championship today. 70-14 over Wibaux.
That explains a lot.And Akron would still be the only FBS school without a win this season. Afraid to admit I have a degree from there.
we play the championship games at a high school field
That's clearly what the OHSAA would prefer.
Have places like Sidney,Piqua,Nippert,PBS ever put in a bid/offer?
This wins the dumbest comment award for this thread.Only in Ohio do we have national power Ohio State, two NFL teams, and we play the championship games at a high school field
I've been fortunate enough to have my boys play at all four venues. As a fan I liked Massillon the best. Plenty of parking and great tailgating. Great atmosphere as a fan. My boys on the other hand, say that nothing compares to running out onto the turf at the Shoe. OSU also did a great job with providing an area to meet the team after the game. Cantor's new field is cool but sucks for the fan. Parking sucks and no tailgating "allowed" by rule. Standing outside the locker rooms by the busses to congradulate the boys is not desirable. You would think they could provide an area somewhere. All that said, I'll go to Canton again this year and cheer the boys on and have a good time doing it.
This is what they call in journalism school "minimization for effect."Only in Ohio do we have national power Ohio State, two NFL teams, and we play the championship games at a high school field
- It would look funny if Texas had national power Ohio State.Only in Ohio do we have national power Ohio State, two NFL teams, and we play the championship games at a high school field
I hated Massillon. Had assigned seats when buying tickets to all six games. The assigned area for each seat at Massillon must have been 10 inches wide at most. Average football coach/fan in those weats (while wearing thick winter coats) had to be at least 16 inches. You could never fit into your row if you were not early (and if you drove from Canton you were not early) so you had to find another seat somewhere.
That is true. We always bought seats for our younger kids in our rows and then they would go sit with the students. Gave us extra room.I hated Massillon.

In other words you prefer GA. So do I. For that exact reason. No matter the venue. Btw Benson has bucket seats which is very nice.
Can't complain about Benson stadium. It is top notch. They just need to clean up the parking situation and not limit the time prior and after the game. After driving close to 4 hours it is nice to stretch out eat some sandwiches and have a couple drinks with friends prior to the game. Bringing the entire family, you can't afford tickets and eating in the stadium. Same reason the kids have a one item limit at a Reds game.
