They should just keep playing in the Linc especially if they can fill most of it today.

I would agree, especially if the Linc can put in Fieldturf since the field gets chewed up with so many games played on it in the Fall.
But I think college football is meant to be played at a campus setting, but a City team like Temple may be better with the Linc Stadium.

The problem is they probably can't come close to filling it. They averaged 44,159 this year, but that was with home games against Penn St. and Notre Dame. They've averaged 25097 over their three seasons in the American against teams other then Penn St. and Notre Dame.
